Ghazals ...

Dang, so many lines are coming on and off in my mind today ...

-- koi ye kaise bataye ki wo tanha kyu hai ... wo jo apna tha wahi aur kisi ka kyu hai ... yehi duniya hai to phir aisi ye duniya kyu hai ... yehi hota hai to aakhir yehi hota kyu hai ...

-- jise bhi dekhiye wo apne aap mein ghum hai ... jubaan mili hai magar humjubaan nahi milta ...

-- jeene ke liye socha hi nahi dard sambhalne honge ... muskuraaye to muskuraane ke karz utaarne honge ... muskuraoon kabhi to lagta hai jaise hothon pe karz rakha hai ...

-- hum bhatakte hai ... kyu bhatakte hai ... dashto sehra mein ... aisa lagta hai mauj pyaasi hai apne dariya mein ... kaisi uljhan hai kyu ye uljhan hai ... ek saaya sa ... rubaru kya hai ..

-- ranz aur dard ki basti ka mai baashinda hoon ... ye to bas mai hoon ki is haal mein bhi zinda hoon ... khaab kyu dekhoo wo kal jispe mai sharmina hoon ...

-- ye bata de mujhe zindagi ... pyaar ki raah ke humsafar kis tarah ban gaye ajnabi ... phool kyu saare murjha gaye ... kis liye bhuj gayi chandni ...

-- kab mili thi kahan bichdi thi ... humein yaad nahi ... zindagi tujhko to bas khaab mein dekha humne ...

-- is dil mein bas kar dekho to .... ye shahar bada puraana hai ...

-- ek andhera laakh sitaare ... ek niraasha laakh sahare ... sabse badi saugaat hai jeevan ... nadan hai jo jeevan se haare ...

-- har ek jism ghayal ... har ik rooh pyaasi ... nigahon mein uljhan ... dilo mein udaasi ..
