intezaar

wo dorahe par khada hai waqt ka ik ped
saare patte sookh chuke hain jiske,
fir bhi shaakhaon se latakte rehte hain
jism kitne hi musaafiron ke guzre,
ruhen jinki abhi bhi atki hain isme
shakaon mein yaadon ke kuch zakhm ab bhi hare hain
saare aansoo beh gaye koi rula de zara,
to fir paani mil jaye jadon ko

takta rehta hai dono rahon ko
sookhi aankhon se apni
shayad bhool gaya hai manzil ka pata

kabhi tum guzro is raah se,
to manzil mil jaye isse
