dhoop mai niklo ghataon mai naha kar dekho
zindagi kya hai kitaabon ko hataa kar dekho
vo sitaaraa hai chamakne do aankhon mai yunhi
kya zaroori hai use jism bana kar dekho
patharon mai bhi zubaan hoti hai dil hote hain
apne ghar ki deewaron ko saja kar dekho
faasla nazron ka dhokha bhi to ho sakta hai
vo milien na milen haath bhadaa kar dekho
duniya jise kahte hai jadoo ka khilonaa hai
mil jaaye to mitti hai kho jaye to sona hai
achaa saa koi mausam tanhaa sa koi aalam
har waqt ka rona to bekaar ka rona hai
barsaat ka baadal to deewaana hai kya jaane
ki kis raah se bachna hai kis chatt ko bhigona hai
ghum ho ki khushi dono kuch der ke saathi hain
fir raasta hi raasta hai hasna hai na rona hai
kabhi kabhi yun bhi humne apne ko hi bahalaaya hai
jin baataon ko khud nahi samajhe auron ko samjhaaya hai
humse poocho izzat vaalon ki izzat ka haal kabhi
humne bhi is shahar mai rahkar thoda naam kamaya hai
usse bichadde barson beete lekin aaj na jaane kyun
aangan mai haste bachoon ko bekaaran dhamkaaya hai
koi mila to haath milaya,kahin gaye to baatien ki
ghar se bahaar jab bhi nikle din bhar bhoj uthaya hai
mai roya pardes mai bheega maa ka pyaar,dukh ne dukh se baat ki bin chitthi bin taar
chota karke dekhiye jeevan ka vistaar,aankhon bhar aakash hai baahaon bhar sansaar
leke tan ke naap ko ghoome basti gaaon,har chaddar ke gher se bahar nikle paaon
sabki pooja eksi alag alag hai reet,masjid jaaye maulvi koyal gaaye geet
poojaghar mai moorti meera ke sang shyaam,jitni jiski chaakri utne uske daam
saatoon din bhagwaan ke kya mangal kyaa peer,jis din soye der tak bhookha rahe fakeer
achi sangat baith kar sangee badle roop,jaise mil kar aam se mithi ho gai dhoop
sapna jharna neend ka jagi aankhien pyaas,paana khona khojna saansoon ka itihaas
chahe geeta vaachiye ya padhiye quraan mera tera pyaar hi har pustak ka gyaan.
aaKhirii Tiis aazamaane ko –ada jafri
aaKhirii Tiis aazamaane ko
jii to chaahaa thaa muskuraane ko
yaad itanii bhii saKht_jaaN to nahiin
ik gharaundaa rahaa hai Dahaane ko
sang_rezon mein Dhal gaye aaNsuu
log haNsate rahe dikhaane ko
zaKhm-e-naGmaa bhii lau to detaa hai
ik diyaa rah gayaa jalaane ko
jalane vaale to jal bujhe aaKhir
kaun detaa Khabar zamaane ko
kitane majabuur ho gaye honge
ankahii baat muuNh pe laane ko
khul ke haNsanaa to sab ko aataa hai
log tarasate rahe ik bahaane ko
rezaa rezaa bikhar gayaa insaaN
dil kii viiraaniyaaN jataane ko
hasaraton kii panaah_gaahon mein
kyaa Thikaane hain sar chhupaane ko
haath kaaNTon se kar liye zaKhmii
phuul baalon mein ik sajaane ko
aas kii baat ho ki saaNs 'Ada'
ye Khilaune hain TuuT jaane ko
dil ajab gumbad ki jis mein ik kabuutar bhii nahiin
itanaa viraaN to murdaaron kaa muqaddar bhii nahiin
[murdaar = dead people]
Duubatii jaatii hain miTTii mein badan kii kashtiyaaN
dekhane mein ye zamiin koii samandar bhii nahiin
jitane hangaame the suukhii Tahaniyon se jhaD gaye
peD par phal bhii nahiin aaNgan mein patthar bhii nahiin
Khushk Tahanii par parindaa hai ki pattaa hai 'Adeem'
aashiyaanaa bhii nahiin jis kaa ko_ii par bhii nahiin
jitanii pyaarii hain merii dharatii jo zanjiiren 'Adeem'
itanaa pyaaraa to kisii dulhan ko zevar bhii nahiin
faasale aise bhii honge ye kabhii sochaa na thaa
saamane baiThaa thaa mere aur vo meraa na thaa
vo ki Khushbuu kii tarah phailaa thaa mere chaar suu
main use mahasuus kar sakataa thaa chhuu sakataa na thaa
raat bhar us kii hii aahaT kaan mein aatii rahii
jhaaNk kar dekhaa galii mein ko_ii bhii aayaa na thaa
aks to maujuud the par aks tanahaa_ii ke the
aa_iinaa to thaa magar us mein teraa cheharaa na thaa
aaj us ne dard bhii apane alahadaa kar diye
aaj mai royaa to mere saath vo royaa na thaa
ye sabhii viiraaniyaaN us ke judaa hone se thii
aaNkh dhuNdhalaaii huii thii shahar dhuNdhalaayaa na thaa
yaad karake aur bhii takaliif hotii thii "Adeem"
bhuul jaane ke sivaa ab koii bhii chaaraa na thaa
