jab kabhii bolanaa vaqt par bolanaa


jab kabhii bolanaa vaqt par bolanaa
muddato.n bolanaa muKhtasar bolanaa

Daal degaa halaaqat me.n ik din tujhe
ai parinde teraa shaaKh par bolanaa

pahale kuchh duur tak saath chal ke parakh
phir mujhe ham_safar ham_safar bolanaa

umr bhar ko mujhe besadaa kar gayaa
teraa ik baar muu.Nh pher kar bolanaa

merii Khaanaabadoshii se puuchhe ko_ii
kitanaa mushkil hai raste ko ghar bolanaa

kyuu.N hai Khaamosh sone kii chi.Diyaa bataa
lag ga_ii tujh ko kis kii nazar bolanaa
