safar

safar aaeena hai

ke jis meiN jhalakti haiN sab justujooeiN

ke jis meiN chamakti haiN sab aarzooeiN

safar bezubaaN hai

ye kehtaa nahi hai ke manzil kahaaN hai

ye chalne kaa ik naam hai ik bayaaN hai

apni muskuraahat bhi ik safar kaa naam hai

jo laboN se chalti hai aur diloN ko jaati hai

aaNsuoN kaa behnaa bhi ik safar kaa naam hai

jo palak se chhantay haiN daamano meiN girtay haiN

safar ke hazaaroN nishaaN hi nishaaN haiN

ye chalne kaa ik naam hai ik bayaaN hai

roz bantay rehtay haiN roz miT'tay rehtay haiN

sab wajood faani hai phir bhi ik rawaani hai

waqt ke thapeRoN se ye rawaani baaqi hai

qatra qatra zindagi ki bas yahi kahaani hai

kabhi Khatm naa ho ye wo daastaaN hai

ye chalne kaa ik naam hai ik bayaaN hai

safar aaeena hai
ke jis meiN jhalakti haiN sab justujooeiN
ke jis meiN chamakti haiN sab aarzooeiN
safar bezubaaN hai
ye kehtaa nahi hai ke manzil kahaaN hai
ye chalne kaa ik naam hai ik bayaaN hai

muR ke lauT jaanaa bhi mumkin na thaa

aur safar ki raah bhi ghaT'ti gayi

phir achaanak naaKhudaa ne ek din

rooh ko phir hukm tanhaayi ki di

zindagi ko umr keh ke alwidaa

jism ko is Khaak pe hi chhoR di

jaanay kab koi dil qareeb aa gayaa

kuchh pataa na chalaa

jaanay kab shaam-e-tanhaayee ruKhsat huyi

kuchh pataa na chalaa

chupkay chupkay hawaaoN ne saazish rachi

mujhko dekhaa kali muskuraane lagi

aur achaanak chaman meiN bahaar aa gayi

kuchh pataa na chalaa

jaanay kab koi dil qareeb.......

jaanay kab shaam-e-tanhaayee......

is qadar shaam rangeeN kabhi bhi na thi

is tarah subh meri mehakti na thi

kis ke haathoN ne baKhshi hai ye dilkashi

kuchh pataa na chalaa

jaanay kab koi dil qareeb.......

jaanay kab shaam-e-tanhaayee......

chaand palkoN pe meri Theharnay lagaa

aks kis kaa hai is meiN jhalakne lagaa

kis ki yaadoN meiN gum ho gayi chaandni

kuchh pataa na chalaa

jaanay kab koi dil qareeb.......

jaanay kab shaam-e-tanhaayee......
