dil machal raha

dil machal raha hai aaj phir ek baache ke jaise
aur woh hain ki ruk ke aate kisi dulhan ke jaise
tamashi jahan dekh raha chupke khidkiyon mein se
aur dikhta noor unka hai raat ke chand ke jaise

kuch aur soochoon to bhi main ab soochoon kaise
zahan mein rehte hain woh mere kissi khwab jaise
main yahan inteezar mein tha unke jaane kab se
aur woh hain ki khelte hain mujhse khilone jaise

sabr ko dekhte hain par woh dekhte betaabi nahin
yeh tamanna hai ki ab dabti nahin fukoon jaise
bhar raha tha shayad main fukein tamannaon mein
aur woh na aake chubho jaate the unhe sui jaise

khwashien hai hubaab aapni, aur jahan samandar
ubharti hain yeh bhi usmein se kissi laher jaise
shayad hai hasti bhi inki us laher ki hi tarah
mit jaate hain ubhar ke yeh bhi laher je jaise

woh to aa hi rahe hain ab tak shayad meri aur
yehi lagta hai aankhoon ko kis saraab ke jaise
yeh dasht-e-hasti to nahin thi Kapil phir bhi
zindagi meri beeti hai yahan kissi dasht jaise
