Khwaab

Ik khwaab jo humne dekha tha,
Us khwaab se ta'alluq toot gaya..
Kar ahd-e-muqammal nikle the,
Wo safar adhar mein chhoot gaya.

Jaagi ya aankhein soyi ho,
Har haal usi ko dekha tha..
Wo nabeena humko karke,
Ta-umr ko dekho rooth Gaya.

Ik marz sareeka samjhe hum,
Bhi ki koshish chhutkare ki..
Jiski marham na ho paaye,
Wo dard sukoon ko loot Gaya.

Kisi roz jo aankhein band hongi,
Us khwaab ko dhoondenge phir se..
Jo chashmein phir na khul paayein,
Maano roshan shams doob Gaya.
