254. Jhoomar

dard jo beraham hain
ye dard to bas vaham hain
kahte hain log
kahte hain log

dard me toote ham hain
to ham hi hain jo besharam hain
kahte hain log
kahte hain log

peene do
peene do
haan

peene do
peene do
haan

hosh zaalim hai
peene do
jab tak hosh na ganwaa baithe

saanson ko
ginte hain
ham

saanson se
sunte hain
ham

karz baaqi hai
jaane do
kab tak jhakde, apni jaan, baithe

haan
peene do
jab tak
jahaan na dhundhuli ho
ashqon me yun ghuli ho

haan
peene do
jab tak
aankhein na adhkhuli ho
behisi na mili ho

haan
peene do
parde chadhe dard pe
duniya bujh jaaye

(behosh benaam hain
apne aashiyaan shaam hain;
subah aankhein kholenge jab,
hona phir badnaam hai)
