  dekhaa huaa saa kuchh hai
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 
 
dekhaa huaa saa kuchh hai to sochaa huaa saa kuchh 
har vaqt mere saath hai ulajhaa huaa saa kuchh 

hotaa hai yuu.N bhii raastaa khulataa nahii.n kahii.n 
ja.ngal-saa phail jaataa hai khoyaa huaa saa kuchh 

saahil kii gilii ret par bachcho.n ke khel-saa 
har lamhaa mujh me.n banataa bikharataa huaa saa kuchh 

fursat ne aaj ghar ko sajaayaa kuchh is tarah 
har shay se muskuraataa hai rotaa huaa saa kuchh 

dhu.Ndhalii sii ek yaad kisii qabr kaa diyaa 
aur mere aas-paas chamkataa huaa saa kuchh 

		 
 
  badalaa na apane aap ko jo the vahii rahe
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 
 
badalaa na apane aap ko jo the vahii rahe 
milate rahe sabhii se magar ajanabii rahe 

duniyaa na jiit paao to haaro na Khud ko tum 
Tho.Dii bahut to zahan me.n naaraazagii rahe 

apanii tarah sabhii ko kisii kii talaash thii 
ham jisake bhii qariib rahe duur hii rahe 

guzaro jo baaG se to duaa maa.Ngate chalo 
jisame.n khile hai.n phuul vo Daalii harii rahe 

		 
 
  dhuup me.n nikalo ghaTaao.n me.n nahaa kar dekho
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 
 
dhuup me.n nikalo ghaTaao.n me.n nahaa kar dekho 
zi.ndagii kyaa hai kitaabo.n ko haTaa kar dekho 

vo sitaaraa hai chamakane do yuu.N hii aa.Nkho.n me.n 
kyaa zaruurii hai use jism banaakar dekho 

pattharo.n me.n bhii zubaa.N hotii hai dil hote hai.n 
apane ghar kii dar-o-diivaar sajaa kar dekho 

faasalaa nazaro.n kaa dhokaa bhii to ho sakataa hai 
vo mile yaa na mile haath ba.Daa kar dekho

muu.Nh kii baate.n sune har ko_ii, dil kaa dard na jaane kaun 
aavaazo.n ke baazaaro.n me.n Khaamoshii pahachaane kaun 

sadiyo.n sadiyo.n vahii tamaashaa rastaa rastaa lambii khoy 
lekin jab ham mil jaate hai.n, kho jaataa hai jaane kaun 

vo meraa aa_iinaa hai mai.n us kii parachhaa_ii huu.N 
mere hii ghar me.n rahataa hai, mujh jaisaa hii jaane kaun 

kirat kirat halkaa saa suuraj, palal palak khulatii nii.nde.n 
yuu.N hii dilpighal rahaa hai, zarraa-zarraa jaane kaun
