kar kuchh aisaa ki tujhe yaad rakhun — Jawad Sheikh

apni taaid pe khud aql bhi hairaan hui
dil ne aise mire khvaabon ki himaayat ki hai

main is khayaal se jaate hue use na milaa
ki rok lein na kahin saamne khaDe aansu

apne saamaan ko baandhe hue is soch mein huun
jo kahin ke nahin rahte vo kahaan jaate hain

kyaa hai jo ho gayaa huun main thoDaa bahut kharaab
thoDaa bahut kharaab to honaa bhi chaahiye

main ab kisi ki bhi ummid toD saktaa huun
mujhe kisi pe bhi ab koi e'tibaar nahin

kaise kisi ki yaad hamein zinda rakhti hai
ek khayaal sahaaraa kaise ho saktaa hai

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

thak gayaa hai dil-e-vahshi miraa fariyaad se bhi
ji bahaltaa nahin ai dost tiri yaad se bhi

phir mujhe dida-e-tar yaad aayaa
dil jigar tishna-e-fariyaad aayaa

sayyaad teraa ghar mujhe jannat sahi magar
jannat se bhi sivaa mujhe raahat chaman mein thi

us ko bhi yaad karne ki fursat na thi mujhe
masruf thaa main kuchh bhi na karne ke baavajud

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