sunaate hain mujhe khvaabon ki daastaan aksar — Bashir Badr

na tum hosh mein ho na ham hosh mein hain
chalo mai-kade mein vahin baat hogi

sar jhukaaoge to patthar devtaa ho jaaegaa
itnaa mat chaaho use vo bevafaa ho jaaegaa

raat kaa intizaar kaun kare
aaj kal din mein kyaa nahin hotaa

ujaale apni yaadon ke hamaare saath rahne do
na jaane kis gali mein zindagi ki shaam ho jaae

jis din se chalaa huun miri manzil pe nazar hai
aankhon ne kabhi miil kaa patthar nahin dekhaa

koi phuul saa haath kaandhe pe thaa
mire paanv shoalon pe jalte rahe

mere khvaabon ke jharokon ko sajaate rahiye
na sahi vasl magar yaad to aate rahiye

hasin khvaab ko sachchaa samajh rahaa hai koi
faqat gumaan ko duniyaa samajh rahaa hai koi

sote mein vo jo mujh se ham-aaghosh ho gae
jitne gile the khvaab-e-faraamosh ho gae

niind ke ghar mein hain khvaab aane lage
'ishq hai naachtaa aankh ke sahn mein

ye mere saathi hain pyaare saathi magar inhein bhi nahin gavaaraa
main apni vahshat ke maqbare se nai tamannaa ke khvaab dekhun

usi ke khvaab the saare usi ko saunp diye
so vo bhi jiit gayaa aur main bhi haaraa nahin
