DiYaa

Tonight there's a crowd in my head:
all the things you are not yet.
You are words without paper, pages
sighing in summer forests, gardens
where builders stub out their rubble
and plastic oozes its sweat.
All the things you are, you are not yet.

Not yet the lonely window in midwinter
with the whine of tea on an empty stomach,
not yet the heating you can't afford and must wait for,
tamping a coin in on each hour.

tohse naina laage piya saanware
nahin bas me ab yeh jiya saanware
tohse naina laage piya saanware
nahin bas me ab yeh jiya saanware
mohabbat to ek jaaveda zindagi hai
mohabbat to ek jaaveda zindagi hai
tohse naina laage mili roshni
tohse man jo laaga mili zindagi
tohse naina laage mili roshni
tohse man jo laaga mili zindagi
mohabbat to ek jaaveda zindagi hai
mohabbat to ek jaaveda zindagi hai

mohabbat ki

Gham Ko Chupaanay Ki Aadat Si Hai Mujhe
Khud Ko Sataane Ki Aadat Si Hai Mujhe,

Jaan Le Na Koi Haal-E-Dil Is Dar Se
Bewajha Muskurane Ki Aadat Si Hai Mujhe,

Youn To Tere Dar Se Namuraad Lauta Hoon
Qismat Ko Aazmaane Ki Aadat Si Hai Mujhe,

Mein Jantaa Hoon Ke Too Laut Kar Na Ayegaa
Dil Ko Behlaane Ki Aadat Si Hai Mujhe,

Chaand Gham Na Kar Mein Bhi Tera Saathi Hoon
Ke Ratjagae Manane Ki Aadat Si Hai Mujhe,

bicharr gaya hai to ab us se kuch gila bhi nahi

jo sach kahoon to woh aek shaks mera tha bhi nahi


main chahta hoon ussay aur chaahne ke siwa

mere liye to koi aur raasta bhi nahi


tere siwa bhi kayi dost baney to yeh raaz khula

mera to shehar mein koi tere siwa bhi nahi!

Awo k ab nai zindgi ka aghaz kartain hain
Kuch khushi k guzre paloon ko yad kertain hain.

Bhula k kul talkihan zamane ki .
sherenie- ae zeest ko yad kartey hain.

Jo ho guzra use bholne ki koshish kartey hain.
Phir se ujrey weranay ghar ko aabad kartain hain.

Main janta hoon howi kuch ghaltian hum se bhi.
Buhla do tum jo in ko to nai shroaat kartain hain.

tumhari sub khataoon ko main khatir nahin lata.
