Zubaan Khamosh Hai Par
Aankhon Mein Tufaan Sa Kyon Hai??

Saans To Leta Hai Har Shaks Iss Jahan Mein,
Par Bejaan Sa Kyon Hai??

Kai Hasratein Dam Tod Chuki Hai Kismat Ke Aage,
Par Phir Kismat Ke Aage Insaan Itna Meharbaan Sa Kyon hai??

Dil To Hai Mere Paas "Khwaish"
par mere dil ke paas dhadakne ka koi bahana nahi,
Dilo Ke Iss Bazaar Mein, Har Shaks Pareshaan sa Kyon Hai??

Chupe Hue Khwaishe,Chupe Hue Jazbaat Bhi Saans Lete Hai Eh Khuda!!
Woh Baat Alag Hai,Tu Inn Baaton Se Anjaan Sa Kyon Hai??

Humsafar Saath Na De To Karwaan Nahi Rukh Jaata "Khwaish"
Zindagi Ke Har Ek Sawaal Ka Jawaab Hota Hai Insaan Ke Paas,
Par Phir bhi Inn Sawaalo Se Insaan Hairaan Sa Kyon Hai??

Inn Ankhon Ne Keh Diya Woh Raaz Jo Dil Mein Chupa Tha "Khwaish"
Ungli Teri Taraf Kabhi Uthai Bhi Nahi,
phir Tu Itna Pashemaan Sa Kyon Hai??

Kisi Ke Liye Dard Nahi Iss Dil Mein,
Nahi Rota Hai Yahan Koi Kisi Aur Ki Mushkil Mein,

Sach To Yeh Hai Ki YEH PATHAR HAI,
Par Phir Shakal Insaan Ki Kyon Hai??

Jo Paraya Hai,Woh Apna Ban Gaya Hai "KHWAISH"
Aaj Apna Hi Apne Ghar Mein Mehmaan Sa Kyon Hai??

Zubaan Khamosh Hai Par Aankhon Mein Tufaan Sa Kyon Hai??

Zubaan thak chuki, deemag thak chuka
ankhon ki barsaat kabhi thakati nahi
saansein lena hai ek majboori is shareer ki
zindagi ka jeena, ab jaroori nahi

hasrato ki hasrate tooti is kadar ab to
kisi bhi hasrat se koi umeend jaroori nahi
Bichardna He Tha, Bichard Gaya Jo Mil Kar
zindagi-e-raah main ab uska intZar jaroori nahi

seene se ubhar kar aa jaate hai kuch zajbaat ankhon mai
beh jaane de ab inko pooja, ankhon ko band karna jaroori nahi
thume thume se, siskate yah zajbaat kahin  mere ander
jiye jaane de, her ek ka marna bhi Jaroori nahi......
