yahaan tak kar liyaa masruf khud ko — Vikas Sharma Raaz

muddatein ho gaiin hisaab kiye
kyaa pataa kitne rah gae hain ham

iraada to nahin hai khud-kushi kaa
magar main zindagi se khush nahin huun

dekhnaa chaahtaa huun gum ho kar
kyaa koi DhunD ke laataa hai mujhe

jise dekho ghazal pahne hue hai
bahut sastaa ye zevar gayaa hai

asar hai ye hamaari dastakon kaa
jahaan divaar thi dar ho gayaa hai

mujh ko aksar udaas karti hai
ek tasvir muskuraati hui

jab ki pahlu se yaar uThtaa hai
dard be-ikhtiyaar uThtaa hai

gham hai na ab khushi hai na ummid hai na yaas
sab se najaat paae zamaane guzar gae

ishq udaasi ke paighaam to laataa rahtaa hai din raat
lekin ham ko khush rahne ki aadat bahut ziyaada hai

husn jalva dikhaa gayaa apnaa
ishq baiThaa rahaa udaas kahin

tujhe kis baat kaa gham hai vo itnaa puchh lein mujh se
vo itnaa puchh lein mujh se to phir kis baat kaa gham hai

bahut royaa huun main jab se ye main ne khvaab dekhaa hai
ki aap aansu bahaate saamne dushman ke baiThe hain
