Ajeeb khwahish hai shehar walon se chhup chhupa kar kitaab likhun,
tumhare naam apni zindagi ki kitaab ka intisaab likhun.
Woh lamha kitna ajeeb tha jab humari aankhen gale mili thi,
main kis tarah ab muhabbaton ki shikastagi ke azaab likhun.
Tumhi ne mere ujaad raaston pe khwahishon ke diye jalaaye,
tumhi ne chaha tha khushk honthon se chaahaton ke gulaab likhun.
Kabhi woh din the ki neend aankhon ki sarhadon se pare pare thi,
magar main ab jab bhi sona chahun tumhari yaadon ke khwaab likhun.
Main tanha ladki diyaar-e shab mein jalaaun sach ke diye kahan tak,
siyaahkaron ki saltanat mein main kis tarah aaftaab likhun.
Qayadaton ke junoon mein jin ke qadam lahoo se range hue hain,
ye mere bas mein nahin hai logo ki unko izzat-maab likhun.
Yehi bahut hai ki inn labbon ko sada se mehroom kar ke rakh dun,
magar ye kaisi musalahat hai samundaron ko saraab likhun .!!
