Woh Adha Chammach Zindagi

Wo patt jhadh ki meethi yaadon se,
sawan ke jhoothe waadon tak.
Wo garmi ke thos irradon se,
Wo Sard raat ke jaaddon tak.
Sameti hai khud me maine,
Woh ankahi si azadagi.
Aj chakh li hai maine,
Wo adha chammach Zindagi.

Wo chutki bhar pyar ka meeethapan,
Beeta jisme pura bachpan.
Wo chutki me gayab ho gya,
Wo hi toh tha mera darpan.

Bachpan ki yaad suhaani thi,
Par aane waali toh Jawani thi.
Ab wo Daur puarana ana tha,
Jab Meera Krishna ki deewani thi.

Mai toh khud Ko khud se bhool gya,
Jawani ka namak jab tha ghul gya.
Saatva asmaan bhi tab Naseeb hua,
Jab Mohabbat-e-tajwez (proposal) ho qubool gya.

Qubool karke ke bachpan ki tishnagi (thirst),
Chali ayi mohbbat baanagee (hallucination).
Sameti hai khud me maine,
Woh ankahi si azadagi.
Aj phir chakh li hai maine,
Wo adha chammach Zindagi.
