Ye Zakhm

Woh zakhm bhar gaye tune khanjar se jo kiye,

Par logon ki zubaanon mein abhi aur zeher baaki hai,


Mujhe to dikhta tha woh aankhon ka samundar tera,

Kya tujhe dikhta tha mere dil mein kitna seher baaki hai???

(seher - sehra = desert)


Tu bahaar hai kal gul khilaa ke chali jaayegi,

Kya mud ke dekhegi kitnaa sunsaan sheher baki hai??


Kehne ko to do saahil kabhi mil hi nahin sakte,

Dekhna ye hai unhein dubone ko kya koi leher baki hai??


Tune sun kar bhi ansuni kar di woh ankahi baat,

E-husn, tune maut to de di,

Ab dhaane ko kya aur keher baki hai??
