ik chhoTaa saa thaa meraa aashiyaan — Rajendera Krishan

log ro ro ke bhi is duniyaa mein ji lete hain
ek ham hain ki hanse bhi to guzaaraa na huaa

ik mohabbat ke sivaa aur na kuchh maangaa thaa
kyaa karein ye bhi zamaane ko gavaaraa na huaa

na jhaTko zulf se paani ye moti TuuT jaaeinge
tumhaaraa kuchh na bigDegaa magar dil TuuT jaaeinge

na chaaraagar ki zarurat na kuchh davaa ki hai
duaa ko haath uThaao ki gham ki raat kaTe

is bhari duniyaa mein koi bhi hamaaraa na huaa
ghair to ghair hain apnon kaa sahaaraa na huaa

ye naazuk lab hain yaa aapas mein do lipTi hui kaliyaan
zaraa in ko alag kar do tarannum phuuT jaaeinge

sau sau tarah ke vasl ne marham rakhe vale
zakhm-e-firaaq hain mire vaise hi tar hanuz

judaaiyaan to muqaddar hain phir bhi jaan-e-safar
kuchh aur duur zaraa saath chal ke dekhte hain

pakDaa huun kinaara-e-judaai
jaari mire ashk ki nadi hai

mire saare badan par duriyon ki khaak bikhri hai
tumhaare saath mil kar khud ko dhonaa chaahtaa huun main

vaqt-e-rukhsat nishaani jo talab ki to kahaa
daagh kaafi hai judaai kaa agar yaad rahe

apne manzar se alag hotaa nahin hai koi rang
apni aankhon ke sivaa baad-e-bahaari aur kyaa
