197. shaq

khaab the

woh betaab se

the machalte


jal gaye

raakh mal gaye

jalte jalte


aag kisne lagaayi

jaan kaise ganwaayi

kya pata

kya pata


tu tha yaa woh thi, aawaaz jiski suni thi

kya pata

khayaal the yaa ham the, mausam tha ya roshni thi

kya pata


gunehgaar laapata

aetbaar laapata


phir bhi sab se sab mile

ab mile tab mile

jaane kab kab mile

haule haule shab chile

par besabab se lab khile


silsile phir chale

dil jale mar chale


woh kaun tha

kya pata

-------------------------

roshan se shab aur sahar siyaah nikle

kya kahe aabaad ya tabaah nikle

kab se mushq-e-rooh gum hai

ab to ashq-o-aah nikle

kyun bhala

kya pata

-------------------------

tauba ki jagah ab to waah waah nikle

muqadama chala, saare begunaah nikle

qaazi gumraah nikle?

qaatil khud gawaah nikle?

kya hua

kya pata

-------------------------

gunehgaar laapata

aetbaar laapata


phir bhi sab se sab mile

ab mile tab mile

jaane kab kab mile

haule haule shab chile

par besabab se lab khile


haqeeqaton ke kaafilen

jise mile mar chale


woh kaun tha

kya pata
