sham ko ghar lauT ke ji bhar ke pachhtate rahe

sham ko ghar laut ke ji bhar ke pachhtate rahe
kal ke chakkar mein hum apne aaj se jate rahe
zindagi ka aur koi pahlu nazar aaya nahin
kuchh naya karne ki dhun mein khud ko dohraate rahe


jo jahan jaise tha wo waise ka waisa hi raha
mere jaise saikdon aate rahe jate rahe
dard kuchh itna ziyaada tha ke sari zindagi
dard hi likhte rahe aur dard hi gate rahe


ye masiha hain nahin ye sab ke sab jarrah hain
aap kin logon ko apne zakhm dikhlate rahe
us ne patthar hi chalae hum pe 'nusrat' raat-din
jis ki rahon mein sada hum phul barsate rahe
