Sabhi poochte hai mujhse jindagi kya hai,
Main poochta hu khuda ki bandagi kya hai,
Jisse dekha nahi uss se hai itna pyar phir bhi,
Jinda insaano se ye sabki dushmani kya hai..

Apne liye jiya karte hain jaanwar bhi yahan,
Khud se bhala ye teri dosti kya hai..

Jo ek aansoo na pooch paye kissi ke ab tak,
Aise jeene ki bhala tujhko aarzoo kya hai..

Gar insaniyat ka labz jan hi na saka tu,
Gaahe-ba-gaahe muskurane ki hasrat kya hai..

Jo jeena ka salika hi na aaya tujhe yahan,
Jindagi se bhala ye teri ulfat kya hai..

Har bat pe pooche hai jindagi kya hai..
Main poochta hu KHUD ki bandagi kya hai..

Wada karke mukar jaane ka chalan accha hai,
Tadapte dil ko tadpane ka chalan accha hai..

Kitne saste hai aaj dil iss bazzar-e-ishq mein,
Ek ko tod duja apnane ka chalan accha hai..

Kabhi sochta hu kyu kar bhala chahun kissi ko,
Bina chahe hi zindagi bitane ka chalan accha hai..

Nahi ulfat hai kissi se, naa hi nafrat hai kissi se,
Nayi deewangi mein deewane ka chalan accha hai..

Kare shikayat koi gar toh bhale hi kiya kare,
Iss sauda-e-muhabbat pe muskurane ka chalan accha hai.

Zindagi ki ye kitaab hum padhen kaise,
Har or se ye toh ulti hi nazar aati hai..

Jitna bhi chah le par dil muskura nahi pata,
Mehfil mein toh tanhai bhi badhti jati hai..

Nahi gila phir bhi koi, shikwa bhi kyu karen,
Jo bhi toot ke chaho wo na hath aati hai..

Shayad yahi jeewan ka saccha makam hai,
Ki makam par kissi zindagi teher na pati hai..

Gar ho haasil har manzil toh jeene ki lalak kahan,
Issi ek soch se zindagi ye chalti jaati hai..

Bat kehne ki jo aa padi hai to ye kehna hai,
Har kissi ko bas khud ke liye hi jinda rehna hai..

Sabhi rishte sabhi naate tabhi mukammal hain,
Chere pe jo muskurat aur khushi ka gehna hai..

Kya sahi hai kya galat, khud ki paribhasha karo,
Kab tak kissi ke sahare se hi bas chalna hai..

Dil mein dard liye jeene se marna hi bhala hua,
Aise jeekar bhala kisko hume khush karna hai...

Ek umang thi iss dil mein, ab marne lagi hai,

Dari hui si meri jindagi aur darne lagi hai..

Na lautane ki koi raah hai, na hi koi diya,

Jane andhere ke kis daur se guzarne lagi hai..

Daba rakha tha kab se ye nassor iss dil mein,

Wo khalish phir se seene mein ubharne lagi hai..

Khatam ho jani hai to ho jaye ab bhale hi jindagi,

Maut mein hi ab toh jindagi meri sawarne lagi hai..

Gum-e-zindagi mein iss kadar majboor ho gaye,

Sabke pas aaye hum, khud se hi door ho gaye..

Kehte hain jindagi rafta rafta chalti rehti hai,

Hum ruke raston ke musaafir mashoor ho gaye..

Jeene aaye the jindagi, jindagi dhoondhte hai ab,

Apni nigaahon mein hum buzdil jaroor ho gaye..

Badi ummeed se hasraton ka diya jalaya hai,

Khoye lamho ko sanjo kar gulistan banaya hai,

Waqt ki aandhi se phir kashmakash hai meri,

Chand ehsaason se iss dil ko phir sajaya hai..

Jeene marne mein fark ko mehsoos kar saku,

Jindagi ko uss makam pe lane ki koshish hai,

Jin shigafon se beh ka nikal gaye jajjbaat,

Unhe phir waqt ke marhum se chupaya hai..

Gardish mein sitare sahi, gum kyu ho bhala,

Wo mayoosi kyu labon pe sada thirakti rahe,

Issi ek soch ke sajde kiye hai sab maine,

Ek muskan ka labon ko aashiyaan banaya hai..

Har dard ko dafan kiye chala main raah mein,

Har chot ke zakhm ko seene par hi liya maine,

Kuch bhi kahe jahan ab parwah hai kisko,

Aye jindagi maine toh tera saath hi nibhaya hai..

Kabhi khud se sitam karein, kabhi khud se wafa karein,

Zindagi ye toh bata de kaise haq tera aada karein..

Na maut mein sukoon na hi jinda rehne pe guman hai,

Kis kadar dil ki hasraton ko hum iss dil se juda karein..

Kabhi halaat pe royen toh kabhi jajjbat pe royen,

Chahein bhi toh bhala kaise nigahen-e-regista karein..

Koi toh ho rehguzar apni, kabhi toh ek rasta mile,

Kaise basar ab ye zindagi-e-dastan karein..

Kabhi iqraar karta hai,Kabhi inkaar karta hai,
Kabhi bewaja dhadkan kowo beqarar karta hai,
Samajh aata nahi ye bhala chahe hai kya,
Kyu bar bar dil kissi se pyar karta hai..

Har bar wahi chot,wahi dard-o-gum ka fasana,
phir bhi naasamajh Khud hi ko bejaar karta hai..

Samajhao toh na samjhe hai ye,Har bar ja fisale,
Har haseena ko dekh khud ko,Bebas laachaar karta hai..

Khud hi roye hai phir,Tadpe raaton ko tanhai mein,
har katra-e-lahoo ko ansoon mein bekaar karta hai..

Phir naya din ho,Nayi subah, nayi ladki,
Phir ek naya chehra aaine mein saakaar karta hai..;) :P

Chalo aye dil kissi ajnabi sheher mein chalen,

Nayi galiyan-o-koonche, naye peher mein chalen..

Jalati hai sada tanhaiyon ki dhoop mujhe,

Teri yadon se bhari hum kissi sahar mein chalen..

Kab tak rahega rootha ab saahil mujhse,

Phir kissi pyar ke hum ek nayi leher mein chalen..

Bahut ruswa hue hain raah-e-ulfat mein hum,

Phir bhi nayi ummeed-e-samar mein chalen..

Chalo nafrat ka sila pyaar se diya jaye,

Khud ko ab bhool kar auron ke liye jiya jaye..

Khuda ki andhi khudai mein bahut khoya hai,

Kuch toh ab kaam yahan, insaano sa kiya jaye..

Chalo nafrat ka sila pyaar se diya jaye..

Rahenge kab tak ghaafil hum dard-e-insaan se,

Har katra-e-askh kissi majrooh ka piya jaye..

Chalo nafrat ka sila pyaar se diya jaye..

Gar jeena hai sada issi jahan mein humko,

Kar ke kuch paak karam, duaon ko hi liya jaye..

Chalo nafrat ka sila pyaar se diya jaye..

Ek naye daur, nayi ummeed ka chalan dekar,

Iss jahan ko kissi jannat sa kiya jaye..

Chalo nafrat ka sila pyaar se diya jaye..

Khud ko ab bhool kar auron ke liye jiya jaye..

Naye saaz par naya taraane banaya jaaye,

Phir se chalo insaniyat ka gul khilaya jaaye..

Wo vishwas ka diya jo bujh gaya hai dilon mein,

Kurbaniyon ke ghee se usse phir jalaya jaaye..

Phir se chalo insaniyat ka gul khilaya jaaye..

Kyu mehsus dusare ka dard ab hota nahi hame,

Apne soye dilon ko phir se jagaya jaaye..

Phir se chalo insaniyat ka gul khilaya jaaye..

Dekh pir parayi kyun nam aankhen nahi hoti,

Inn aankhon ko phir se rona sikhaya jaaye..

Phir se chalo insaniyat ka gul khilaya jaaye..

Girte ko sambhalne ko haath kyu nahi uthte,

Inn bajuon ko kuch toh kam mein laya jaaye..

Phir se chalo insaniyat ka gul khilaya jaaye..

Kyu insaan ko kutte billi jyada pyaare hue,

Insaa ke liye apni muhabbat ko badhaya jaaye..

Phir se chalo insaniyat ka gul khilaya jaaye..

Unn masoom nigahon ko hum na jaane kya samajh baithe,

Teri dilkash adaon ko hum wafa samajh baithe..

Badi hasrat se sajaya tha dil ka aashiyan humne,

Tujhe nafrat bhari dunai mein hum dua samajh baithe..

Bahut tha naaz humko apni iss paak muhabbat par,

Sabhi gumon se hum apne aap ko juda samajh baithe..

Na gumaan tha hame ye bas dillgai hai teri khatir,

Tujhko toh hum muhabbat ka ek khuda samajh baithe..

Liye baithe hain ab aansoo aur jahan ka dard seene mein,

Apni iss nadan si ghaflat ko pyar ka diya samajh baithe..

Meri aankhon ki tanhai ko tum pehchaan na paye,

Dil pukarta raha tumhe, tum phir bhi nahi aaye..

Hue masroof tum kuch yun gairon ki mehfil mein,

Meri hasraton ke diye tumko na lubha paye...

Dil pukarta raha tumhe, tum phir bhi nahi aaye..

Meri dil ki lagi ne haal kuch aisa mera kiya,

Sawan ke mahine mein bhi hum aansuon mein nahaye..

Dil pukarta raha tumhe, tum phir bhi nahi aaye..

Tumse andheri raton ka hum shikwa bhi kya kare,

Jab din ke ujalon mein tumko dhoondh na paye..

Dil pukarta raha tumhe, tum phir bhi nahi aaye..

Saahil pe baith tumko hanste dekha hai dil ne,

Ishq mein dubne ke wade tumne acche nibhaye..

Dil pukarta raha tumhe, tum phir bhi nahi aaye..

Zindagi se bhali maut mujhko lagne lagi hai,

Ho khushi jo ye jaan tere naam pe jaaye..

Dil pukarta raha tumhe, tum phir bhi nahi aaye..

Kabhi ruswaiyon mein, kabhi tanhaiyon mein,

Humne khud ko paaya hai bas parchaiyon mein..

Jo kuch bhi mila mujhko bas tukadon mein hi mila,

Kismat ne likha hai mujhko feenki syahiyon mein..

Sabhi mujhse mere ashkon ka sabab poochte hain,

Kya karun main jo maatam hi lage shehnaiyon mein..

Aye zindagi ab tu hi badha le daaman apna,

Duba jaata hun main gumon ki gehraiyon mein..

Mere ashkon ki apne dil pe nishani le le,

Mere mehboob aaj meri bhi kahani le le..

Kai batein hai unkahi jo tumko sunani hai,

Meri majburiyon ka sabab tu jabani le le..

Mere mehboob aaj meri bhi kahani le le..

Naye lamhe bahut honge teri yadon ke aagan mein,

Aaj mujhse meri kuch yaadein purani le le...

Mere mehboob aaj meri bhi kahani le le..

Tere jawaa iradon ke nazar karun toh kya karun,

Jo pyar jee hi na saka tu uski jawani le le...

Mere mehboob aaj meri bhi kahani le le..

Mere dil ki dua hai tujhe khushi hi ho haasil,

Badhte kadamo mein meri sason ki rawani le le..

Mere mehboob aaj meri bhi kahani le le..

Mumbai Crisis

These day i think, and feel restless,

Life to me was never so baseless.

An empty hollow felt i feel within,

Tears welling, Oh the heart so grim.

Innocent are murdered on God's name,

Humanity is leading to a new infame.

This progress at its retrogressive best,

Life's definition is changing its quest.

One day will come, i have to wait,

The demons will use we humans as bait.

Oh Lord!! this life is so beautiful,

So lovely is sunshine,

Fill the world with love only love,

My only hope is intervention divine!!
