Itti Si Khushi

Waqti sa taluq hai,
Kuch lamhoun ka sauda,
Bharhay, khilay, murjhayay,
Manind jaisa koi pauda,
Chandh lamhoun ka he hai sawaal,
Wajib hai beech rah chooth jana,
Jo saath milay ghaneetmut jaano,
Kal toh hai phir dil toot he jana,
Per phir afsoos na karna tum,
Kay kuch dair aur saath chaltay toh kya,
Rangoun bhari duniya toh hai,
Per hai uss main bhi ik rung syah,
Chaashni main liptay lumhoun say,
Dil lubhana jo jaantay ho,
Toh phir batao kaantoun bina phool naheen,
Iss ko kaisay naheen maantay ho,
Jo tha jab taluk, gholi misri zindagani main,
Bhichrhay toh moun karwah ab toh,
Aaj anjaan hua phir say tum say,
Jo tha kabhi tumhara sab woh,
Dil-o-dimaagh peh hawi hain lumhain,
Jab qadum say qadum mila kay chalay,
Un yaadoun ko dil say na utaaro,
Kya hua jo ab tanhai main shaam dhalay,
Kabhi toh uss nay bhi roshni lai thee,
Di thee tum ko muskuranay ki wajah,
Ab jo naheen hai woh toh phir,
Ussay tumhara yaad karna toh hai baja,
Per intiqaam ki ruh say naheen,
Naheen jhulastay ghussay main,
Jo mila jitna mila, muskura kay yaad karo,
Aaya jo bhi jab taluk tumharay hissay main,
Maazi ka punnah bun kay bhi reh jaayay,
Na ho majood woh ab iss pal,
Mustaqbil kay sapnoun ka saathi tha,
Per ab reh gaya toh bus khalal,
Mayoosi ki chadar ko kyun orhna,
Kyun bhulana theek tha jab sab,
Khusiyoun nay dee dastak kabhi toh thee,
Chahay waqt ki rait main ab gaya dub,
Humraahi bun kay reh jatay sada,
Toh khair gila na shikwa hota koi,
Per ab jo haqiqut ka daikhtay ho chehra,
Toh asnsoo behtay, yaadain chubteen jaisay soi,
Per jo ussay rukna naheen ab,
Toh batao thehrana jaantay ho kya,
Naheen toh bus ab sambhalnay main sakoon jano,
Uss ko toh tha jana so woh toh gaya,
Mut bhoolo kay ho itti si khushi,
Naheen bun kay rehti sab ka naseeb bhi,
Kuch toh tumharay beetay lamhoun ko bhi hain tarastay,
Tahayaat dayta hai ishq kuch aisi bhi ghareebi.
