aakhiri baat tum se kahnaa hai — Jaun Elia

ek hi to havas rahi hai hamein
apni haalat tabaah ki jaae

aaj bahut din baa'd main apne kamre tak aa niklaa thaa
juun hi darvaaza kholaa hai us ki khushbu aai hai

shishe ke is taraf se main sab ko tak rahaa huun
marne ki bhi kisi ko fursat nahin hai mujh mein

main ab har shakhs se uktaa chukaa huun
faqat kuchh dost hain aur dost bhi kyaa

vo jo na aane vaalaa hai naa us se mujh ko matlab thaa
aane vaalon se kyaa matlab aate hain aate honge

bahut nazdik aati jaa rahi ho
bichhaDne kaa iraada kar liyaa kyaa

mere khvaabon ke jharokon ko sajaate rahiye
na sahi vasl magar yaad to aate rahiye

sab ko ham bhuul gae josh-e-junun mein lekin
ik tiri yaad thi aisi jo bhulaai na gai

apne bistar pe dam na toD dein ham
teri baaton ko yaad kar kar ke

ishq ki choT kaa kuchh dil pe asar ho to sahi
dard kam ho yaa ziyaada ho magar ho to sahi

us ki yaad aai hai saanso zaraa aahista chalo
dhaDkanon se bhi ibaadat mein khalal paDtaa hai

hairat hai tum ko dekh ke masjid mein ai 'khumaar'
kyaa baat ho gai jo khudaa yaad aa gayaa
