are hero!
adakari na kar chal uth

ki lakhon dil teri aankhon se dhadkan lene aae hain
chalo mana teri aankhen kuchh aisi thin

ki is be-kar sayyare pe un ka der tak rahna
na banta tha

magar pyare!
teri aankhon ki rukhsat raushni ki haar hi to hai

tu kyon khamosh hai kuchh kah
ki teri be-karan aawaz mein to lakhon sadiyon ki sadaen thin

tere chehre ka har gahra tassur aisa charkha tha
ki jis par apne jazbe kadhte the hum

so is charkhe ki kuk ab kis liye chup hai
kahani ka hidayat-kar bhi shayad teri aankhon ki gahrai se khaif tha

wo mil jae to bolenge
ki is kirdar ka jaana na banta tha!

chal aankhen khol tujh se milne lakhon log aae hain
kisi ko bhi yaqin aata nahin hai tere jaane ka

unhen lagta hai un ke rote rote tu uthega aur kahega:
gham nahin karna

gulon ki zindagani maut se kab khatm hoti hai
mohabbat ki kahani maut se kab khatm hoti hai
