Chhalaawa

Kayi muddato se maine jo kwaab tha dekha, wo aaj aake yun toota mai dekhta hi reh gaya

Kab neend se jaaga kab roshni mei tha, wo kab andhera gum hua mai sochta hi reh gaya

Kho diya usko bhi maine khwaab mei jo aya tha, dur ja pahuncha tha mera apna jab mai soya tha

Kyu chhaye baadal h ye saare bas mere sirhaane pe, barse h yun mujhpe ye ki mai bistar sukhata reh gaya

Jab paanv dharti pe hai rakkhe lagti wo khisakti si, aur aasmaan chalne laga h sochke mai nashe mei tha

Sab jhooth hai sab hai chhalaawa aur sach nahi lagti haqiqat, wo khwaab shayad zinda hai banke meri ab shakhsiyat

Phir kyu ye bechaini hai muhko kyu yun itni aag hai, jab shakhsiyat bemaani ho gayi to zinda kyu jazbaat hai
