mere shaher mein

mere shaher mein to log pooch rahein hain
hum mille ek baar, par ab durr khade hain
kuch baatoon ka zamaane ko kiya illm hoga
beech aapne jaane kitane fansale pade hain

na the fansale kabhi itane apne darmiyan
aaj jitane ghere yeh zakhm hue pade hain
kuch galat-fahmiyoon ki bus baat thi yeh
aaj aapni hasti ki haiqqiqat baane hain

haqqiqat aisi bayaan main karoon kiss_se
zamaane ke paas bahut fansane padde hain
hans lete kuch aur is_pe bhi yahan woh
aur bhul jaata do riste dil baache hain

in dil_oon ki bhi ajab halaat yahan hain
hum dur aur dil abhi bhi saath khade hain
hain hum dono issi dariya ke kinare magar
beech aapne jaane kitane fansale pade hain
