In Search of Divine

Sharaab ne jinhe thukara diya, voh jaye kidhar? Joh hosh mein hai voh madhosiyo ko paaye kidhar? Jinje kaza se lagta hai darr, voh jite hai, Joh maut se bhi ukta gaye, voh jaye kidhar? Dua mein haath utthe ek nahi jo laakho baar, Voh mandiro mein nahi rehta hai!! toh ab jaye kidhar?

Shukoon jara sa bhi mil jaye toh asar khaafi ho, Joh yaar mujko banaye voh yaar saaki ho. Karaar kisko mila hai yeh dil lagaane mein, Safar voh khubsurat ho joh ab bhi baaki ho.

Kalam ke aasu ko, kagaz hi, phir se poachegaa Khuch es tarah se, apne daag, phir se dhodaigaa. Kiya hai ishq kalam se toh rahe darr ab kya Kalam ki yaad mein yeh janamoh tak nahi soaegaa

Drifting aimlessly Safar mein aaj bhi koi mera nisaan na mila, Koi rasta koi manjil koi khudaa na mila. Ke mil rahe hai sabhi se yu hi milne ke liye, Vagar na kaunsa dil tha joh hummein viraan na mila. Gham ke bazaar se gujare toh, utthe laakho haath, Sukuun ki baat chali, toh ek hummein ensaan na mila.

Hum apne karobaar ko, lekar kaha chale? Har aur hi toh bheed hai, bolo kaha chale? Maana ke jindagi mili, main kaise khush rahu?, Gham jab hazaar saath mein, chahe jaha chale? Barsoh hue par aadmi, khud se mila nahi, Yeh khud-khusi ke saamne,  dekho kaha chale. Chal-neko,  paav haa mere! Chal toh rahe magar, Yeh kis disha mein aaj hum, haye!! Kaha chale? Koshish toh humne laakh ki, ke unsa pyaar ho, Loh voh bhi un mein mil gaye, ab hum kaha chale?

Bik gayi thi jaha vafa teri Main us gali mein yaad aaungaa. Yaad aaungaa dabi dhadkan mein, tej saso mein yaad aaungaa. Phool chunne ko jaha jaaogi, Shyam jab hougi toh yaad aaungaa. Bhool jaaogi hummein yeh munkin hai, bhool se hi sahi yaad aaungaa. Chat pe rouna tummhari fitrat hai, chat pe rouaogi toh yaad aaungaa. Rang layegi jab heena haatoh mein, gor se dekhougi toh yaad aaungaa.
