Yun chalte chalte ek mod pe main ruk gaya,
Thoda ghabraya sa ek chehra mil gaya,
Kuch kehna chata tha par kuch kehna paya,
Aankhon se kehta par juban tak la na paya.......


Halki muskan se use paas bulaya,
Sambhlne ko kaha.. par wohi khada ladkhadaya,
Kandhe pe le, aage mod pe use kuch samjhaya,
Khamosh aur reh na saka bheegi aankhon se kuch batlaya.......


Kuch gum the use,
Zindagi k kuch dhoke ne majboor kiya,
Jine ki as na thi use,
Maut ne bhi use lene se inkar kiya......


Mod pe ruk k intezaar wo karta raha,
Naumeed si kiran k liye khud tadpta raha,
Kuch azab si paheli wo bunta raha,
Main sehm sa gaya jab,
Us mod pe ek aaena nazar aaya.............
