Ye Raat

Raat nikli andhere se pareshan hokar

Ja mili ujaale se subaha hokar

shaam dhali to bichhdi ujaale se

phir ja mili andhere se fanaah hokar

Wo Lamhe Wo Raaten

kharch kiye kuchh lamhen maine teri yaadon ke baazar mein

aur khareed liye kuchh sapne subaha hone ke intezaar mein,

Neend bhi tooti meri, jahaan-jahaan dil toota

sab jakhm bhi hare hue, aur aakhir mein ye sapna toota

phir se shaayad main phas gaya, usi majhdaar mein..

baat karunge to baat niklegi door talak

baat sunoge to baat adhoori reh jayegi,

kuchh kisse shayad kabhi poore nahin hote

reh jaate hain pyaase kai maajhi, lehron ke pyaar mein..

Kehte hain ke pyaar wo daulat hai jo kharch karne par badhti hai

koi sikke ya asharfiyan nahin, jo milti hain kisi raja ke darbaar mein...

humne bhi khoob lutayi ye daulat magar gareeb hi rahe

kuchh bhi hamara na chhoda, us mili juli sarkaar ne.

kuchh panktiyon ke saath ise khatam karunga, raat bahut bhaari hai,

ke peekar nikaal diya ya nikaal kar pee gaya,

tujhe main is paimaane mein daal kar pee gaya,

khatam hui to har kisi ne jaam patka

aur main ashiq aakhri boond se peg banaakar pee gaya..

Rishte

Har baat bol kar bataana zaroori to nahin Rizwaan,

kabhi kabhi chup rehkar bhi haale dil bayaan hota hai..

Izhaar-e-mohabbat bhi har baar alag hoti hai

kai baar ye sab Nazron ka anumaan hota hai..

kai rishte bune jaate hain pehli hi nazar mein

kabhi-kabhi dil bahut jaldi baimaan hota hai..

Ye jaroori bhi nahin ke har rishta atoot ho

kuchh toot kar phir jud bhi jaate hain,

Ye baat bhi sach hai ke

bure waqt mein kaam aaye rishte par maan hota hai

Magar ek sawaal mere dil ko bahut pareshaan karta hai

ke rishte hum khud hi banaate hain aur khud hi todte hain

Phir kyun har rishta tootne par badnaam hota hai??

Yahi hota pyaar hai kya

Jaane kya mujhse ye zamaana chahta hai

Mere jism ko rooh se alag kar, use mitaana chahta hai

Wo nikli hai bheed dekho mujhe maarne ke liye 

Wo ek shaks kon hai us bheed mein akela

Wo unhen kuchh samjhaana chahta hai

Shayad wo mera yaar hai, mujhe bachana chahta hai

Mat roko unhen mere yaar, aane do, dekhta hun main bhi

ke kitna dum hai mere pyaar ki taakat mein

Bhagwaan shayad mujhe ab aazmaana chahta hai..

Ye log waise bhi hamen yahaan jeene nahin denge

Mar gaya to tum bhi aa jaana upar suna hai wahaan koi rok-tok nahin hai

isiliye shaayad rab hamen upar bulaana chahta hai

Ye kya hua magar ke ye bheed wahin tham gayi hai

Na koi shor hai, sab ki aankhon mein kuchh nameen si hai

wo mera yaar hai nikla mujhe chhodkar khuda se milne

Wo bhi aaj mujhe shayad haraana chahta hai

wo log ab ek doosre ko kaat rahen hain

Ye kya log hain rabba tune kya bana diya

Mere yaar ki laash ka bhi ye log batwaara chahte hain

koi use jalaana to koi dafnaana chahta hai..

Badlapur

Main guzra aaj phir teri gali se, aur kuchh tanha sa laga
shaayad ab wahaan tanhai rehti hai,
Mili kuchh mehak teri baaton ki bhi jo zinda hain wahaan,
magar aaj unmen ruswai si rehti hai..

Wo kachchi mitti ki deewaren jihne taap kar tera deedar hua karta tha
wo badal gayin maidan mein wahaan ek chaarpai si rehti hai...
Zara bhi magar nahin badla tere ghar ka wo aangan
teri tarah wahaan bhi bewafai si rehti hai,
Guzaari thi kai tanha raaten zahan tere intezaar mein roshni
aaj wahaan andheron ki ek razai rehti hai..
Ye sirf khayaal nahin hain ye mere dil ke tukde hain
aaj yahaan mere toote hue sapnon ka baazar bhi laga hai
Khiraddar aate hain aur jaate hain khaali haath
bhare baazaaar mein bhi meri dukaan karzaai si rehti hai
Tu hi bata de mujhe e maula ke ye dukaan kahaan chalegi
aaj tak jahaan bhi kholi wahaan udhaar badhta raha hai
mere asool badal de ya ye duniya badal de
Warna mujhe lagega ke tu sirf kitaabon mein chhupa hai
aur bahaar bas teri parchhai si rehti hai..

Backbiting

Tha akela hai akela aur akele jaana hai, 

phir bhi na jaane kyun log doosron ki baat karte hain?

था अकेला, है अकेला और अकेले जाना है,
फिर भी ना जाने क्यूँ लोग दूसरों की बात करते हैं?

Mind or Heart?

Diya usne bhi aaj suboot apni begunahi ka,
aaj tak jisko hum dushman samajhte rahe,
ye mera dil hi tha jo hamesha uska saath deta tha,
aur ek hum the ke deemag ki baat sunte rahe..!!

दिया उसने भी आज सुबूत अपनी बेगुनही का,
आज तक जिसको हम दुश्मन समझते रहे,
ये मेरा दिल ही था जो हमेशा उसका साथ देता था,
और एक हम थे के दीमाग की बात सुनते रहे..!!
