kuch bhi nahin

jaane se use to kabhi maine roakaa hi nahin
aur usne mudake dubara mujhe dekha bhi nahin

tha masslla bas guzari hui us ek hi raat ka
jiska usko aur mujhko to koi ilmm bhi nahin

phir kyon hua hai yeh ruthana aapna bewajah
jab uske siwa apna to koi saani bhi nahin

aaj kyon lagta hai duriyaan hain umrr ki, jab
darmiyaan apne to tha koi fansaala bhi nahin

sulag raha hoon main, siski uski aayi kahin
apni yeh zidd hai, jab haqqiqat kuch bhi nahin

bahut badnaseeb hai 'Kapil' tu aaj dekh le
jeet kar bhi tere paas aaj kuch bhi nahin

adhoori hasratein

agar adhoori hasratoon pe raote rehte
to na jaane kis-kis ka yun malaal karte

hai chand hi sansein yeh ek zindagi apni
isse kaise jeete, agar hum roz marte rehte

ye fansala chand kadam, meeloon ki duri
do kadam kaise chalte agar sochte rehte

chodd aye the kahin khud ko kabhi yun
saans kaise lete agar wo bhoj dhote rehte

aaj na raha woh manzar, na woh jazba
yeh kaise likhte agar usi mein dube rehte

bahut mushkil jeena, aur mushkil marna
yun hi marr kar kis kis ka jawaab dete

hain sansein baaki kuch to abhi Kapil
hum har saans se kis-kis ka hisaab lete
