Ek Ehsaas

Khushboo hain tu, kuch meethi si
Dhun hain tu, ek madhur si

Bol hain tu, ek adhuri kavita ke
Ehsaas hain tu, ek khaali bistar ka
Khamoshi hain tu, cheer ke jaati hui 
Neend hain tu, door bhaagti hui 

Tadap hain tu, ek lambi lagi lath ka
Dhyan hain tu, us tooti samadhi ka

Jab kareeb thi tu toh kadar kaha thi 
Jab chali gayi tu toh takleef kaha thi 
Reth hain tu jo pisalti chali gayi
Rakeeb ke oor tu dhalti chali gayi

Na main ab tere aankon ka noor hoon 
Na main tere dil Ko du, woh sukoon hoon
Bas ab, teri khani ka khatam hua ek panna hoon
Tera ateet ka main ek sira hoon. 

Door kahi choor ke us paar, yadon main dafna hoon.
Tere naye ishq ka main ek marg darshi hoon.
