yaadon ke ambar lage the
khali packet bhare pade the

jaane kaun sa dukh hawi tha
jaane kyon itna hanste the

us bezar gali se ho kar
hum aksar aate jate the

khwabon ke bosida manzar
aankhon aankhon jhank rahe the

aawazon ke gunge lashkar
raat ka sina chir rahe the

gul-danon ko yaad nahin ab
pahle kaun se phul saje the

hum bhi pagal the jo tum se
apna ji halka karte the

kaisi wahshat-nak faza thi
chae ke khali cup kahte the

meri is viran-sara tak
kuchh sae pichha karte the

kitni purani khabren thi wo
jin ko hum taza karte the

afsanon ki bhid mein kho kar
hum khud ko dhunda karte the
