bas ho gaya? ya ladaai aur baakee hai

jinda hain, to judaae aur baakee hai

peeth peechhe huee to saamane bhee sahee

us zaalim kee bewafaai aur baakee hai

ek baath ke das matlab bhee ho sakate hain

panna bhar gaya, siyaahi aur baakee hai

vo ishq bechata to main kareed bhee letaa

magar mere hisse kee kamai aur baakee hai

kis kis ne dhakela hai muje katghare mein

usne kahaa hai ki gavaahi aur baakee hai

manzil saamane hai, raastaa door hai

ab ek janam kee rasaai aur baakee hai

likhane kee koshish mein baithaa hoon subah se

magar raat kee padhai aur baakee hai

shaayar ban gaya, binaa khvaahish ke

mashhoor ho jaoon to tabaahi aur baakee hai

jo chaaho vo kahaan milata hai

magar mil jae to chintaa hai

mera ishq mujse behatar hai

too mera nahin to phir kiskaa hai?

tera asar kuch aisa hua mujhapar

aaine mein cheharaa tujhsa dikhataa hai

ek savaal hai ke batao ab kaun

tumhaare saath, taareephen ginata hai?

kaun karthaa hai tumhaaree tarifein?

tumhaaree shikaayatein kaun sunta hai?

is badan kee maaya bhee ajeeb hai

jitna baandho utana hee khulata hai

is viraane mein ye khushboo kaisee?

lagtaa hai, vo yahaan se guzara hai

umr guzar gayi, lekin tere baad jaanaa

ki sooraj kis tarah ugta hai

mujse ladke jamaane ko bade vo

jamaane se ladke mujhamen chhupataa hai

ye huliya, ye gam, ye sher

mera kuch nahin, saba uska hai

mere badan pe usne aaj bhee naakun kar diya

aaine mein palat ke dekhoon to sukoon kar diya

duniyaan kee nazaron se usko chhupaata raha aksar

ab vo chhup gayee hai to sabko maalum kar diya

meri zarurat pe vo mere kilaaf ho jaataa hai

us beraham ka naam maine kanoon kar diya

badee ajeeb baath hai, koyi use batao

dil mein koon hai aur dil ka hee koon kar diya?
