dilip-kumar ki aaKHiri KHwahish

le chalo dosto
le chalo qissa-khwani ke bazar mein
us mohalle khuda-dad ki ek shikasta gali ke muqaffal makan mein
ki muddat se viran kuen ki zamin chatti pyas ko dekh kar apni tishna-labi bhul jaun


ghutarghun ki aawaz darbon se aati hui sun ke
kothe pe jaun kabutar udaun
kisi bagh se khushk mewon ki saughat le kar sadaen lagaun
zabanon ke roghan ko zaitun ke zaiqe se milaun


jami sardiyon mein gali ke usi takht par narm kirnon se chehre pe surkhi sajaun
ki yaron ki un toliyon mein nai dastanen sunaun
unhi pan-danon se lali churaun
mujhe un purani si rahon mein phir le chalo dosto


han mujhe le chalo us basanti dulari madhu ki gali mein
ki khwabon ki wo raushni aaj bhi meri aankhon mein aabaad hai
mere kanon mein us ke tarannum ki ghanti
sahifon ki surat utari gai hai


sabhi ko bulao ki naghma-sarai ka ye marhala aakhiri hai
bulao mere raj ko
aakhiri shab hai
phir se hasinon ke jhurmut mein bas aakhiri ghunt pi ke


fana ghatiyon mein
main yun phail jaun ki wapas na aaun
suno dosto
