Udaas Aankhon Se Aansu Nahin Nikalte Hain

Udaas aankhon se aansu nahin nikalte hain,
Ye motiyon ki tarah sipiyon mein palte hain,

Ghane dhuein mein farishte bhi aankh malte hain,
Tamaam raat khajooron ke ped jalte hain,

Main shahraah nahin raaste ka patthar hun,
Yahaan sawaar bhi paidal utar ke chalte hain,

Unhein kabhi na batana main un ki aankhon mein,
Wo log phool samajh kar mujhe masalte hain,

Kayi sitaaron ko main jaanta hun bachpan se,
Kahin bhi jaaun mere saath saath chalte hain,

Ye ek ped hai aa is se mil ke ro lein hum,
Yahaan se tere mere raaste badalte hain.!!
