Rahne diya na us ne kisi kaam ka mujhe

Rukhsat hua to Ankh mila kar nhi gaya

Wo kyun gaya hai ye bhi bata kar nhi gaya.

Wo Yun gaya ki baad ye saba yad aa gai

Ehsaas tak bhi hamko dila kar nhi gaya.

Yun lag raha hai jaise abhi laut aaega 

Jate hue chirag bujha ke nhi gaya..

Bas ek lakeer khinch gaya darmiyan mai

Diwar raste mein bana kar nhi gaya..

Ghar m hai aaj tak wahi khusboo bhari hui

Lagata hai yun ki jaise wo aa kar nhi gaya...

Tab tak to phool jaisi thi us ki yaad

Jab tak wo pattiyon ko juda kar nhi gaya..

Rahne diya na us  ne kisi kaam ka mujhe

Aur khak mein bhi mujh ko mila kar nhi gaya ...
