Ek ghulab tha.............

Ek gulab tha,
Bara udaas tha.
Rang bhi us ka tha kuch ora ora sa,
Shabnam k ansoo rawaan the us k,
Dil tha us ka kuch bujha bujha sa,
Bahar ka tha mausam phir bhi na khila tha,
Dali se tha who apni kuch jhuka jhuka sa,
Main ne jo dekha usee,
Pass ja k pocha us se,
Kyon hai udaas tu?
Kyon kerta hai dil barbad tu?
Kis ko kerta hai yaad tu?
Yeh sun ker who rone laga,
Shabnam k ansoo se moon dhone laga,
Or rotay rotay bas yeh kehne laga,
Mera yaar mujh ko chor geya hai,
Mera pyar mujh se moun moor geya hai,
Ab main kis k liye khil jaoon,
Ab main kis k liye khushboo mahkaoon,
Mujhe kon apne dil se lagae ga,
Mujh ko kon apni sansoon me basae ga,
Mera chaman ujar geya hai,
Mera yar mujh se bichar geya hai,
Bas ab to her lamha us ki yaad hai,
Bas beqarari hai, tarap hai faryaad hai,
Mujh ko koi mere yaar se mila dai,
Mujh ko koi mera pyar lotaa de,
Woh aye ga tu khil jaoon ga main,
Apni zindagi se mil jaoon ga main..............................
