Rahat Indori
Chale Chalo Ke Jahaan Tak Ye Aasmaan Rahe
Ye Kyaa Uthaaye Qadam Aur Aa Gai Manzil
Mazaa To Jab Hai Ke Pairon Mein Kuch Thakan Rahe
Vo Shakhs Mujh Ko Koi Jaalsaaz Lagataa Hai
Tum Us Ko Dost Samajhate Ho Phir Bhi Dhyaan Rahe
Mujhe Zamin Ki Geharaaion Ne Daab Liyaa
Main Chaahataa Thaa Mere Sar Pe Aasmaan Rahe
Ab Apane Bich Maraasim Nahin Adaavat Hai
Magar Ye Baat Hamaare Hi Darmiyaan Rahe
Magar Sitaaron Ki Faslen Ugaa Sakaa Na Koi
Meri Zamin Pe Kitane Hi Aasmaan Rahe
Vo Ek Savaal Hai Phir Us Kaa Saamanaa Hogaa
Duaa Karo Ke Salaamat Meri Zabaan Rahe
Dastaar Kahaan Milenge Jahaan Sar Nahin Mile
Aavaaragi Ko Dubate Suraj Se Rabt Hai
Magrib Ke Baad Ham Bhi To Ghar Par Nahin Mile
Kal Aa_inon Kaa Jashn Huaa Thaa Tamaam Raat
Andhe Tamaash_binon Ko Patthar Nahin Mile
Main Chaahataa Thaa Khud Se Mulaaqaat Ho Magar
Aaine Mere Qad Ke Baraabar Nahin Mile
Pardes Jaa Rahe Ho To Sab Dekhate Chalo
Mumkin Hai Vaapas Aao To Ye Ghar Nahin Mile
Der Se Nikalaa To Mere Raaste Mein Daar Thaa
Apane Hi Phailaao Ke Nashe Mein Khoyaa Thaa Darakht
Aur Har Masum Tahani Par Phalon Kaa Baar Thaa
Dekhate Hi Dekhate Shaharon Ki Raunaq Ban Gayaa
Kal Yahi Cheharaa Thaa Jo Har Aaine Pe Baar Thaa
Sab Ke Dukh Sukh Us Ke Chehare Pe Likhe Paaye Gaye
Aadami Kyaa Thaa Hamaare Shahar Kaa Akhabaar Thaa
Ab Mohalle Bhar Ke Daravaazon Pe Dastak Hai Nasib
Ek Zamaanaa Thaa Ke Jab Main Bhi Bahut Khuddaar Thaa
Kaagazon Ki Sab Siyaahi Baarishon Mein Dhul Gai
Ham Ne Jo Sochaa Tere Baare Mein Sab Bekaar Thaa
Ye Zindagi To Hai Rahamat Ise Sazaa Na Kaho
Na Jaane Kaun Si Majaburiyon Kaa Qaidi Ho
Vo Saath Chhod Gayaa Hai To Bevafaa Na Kaho
Tamaam Shahar Ne Nezon Pe Kyun Uchhaalaa Mujhe
Ye Ittefaaq Thaa Tum Is Ko Haadasaa Na Kaho
Ye Aur Baat Ke Dushman Huaa Hai Aaj Magar
Vo Meraa Dost Thaa Kal Tak Use Buraa Na Kaho
Hamaare Aib Hamen Ungaliyon Pe Ginvaao
Hamaari Pith Ke Pichhe Hamen Buraa Na Kaho
Main Vaqiyaat Ki Zanjir Kaa Nahin Qaayal
Mujhe Bhi Apane Gunaahon Kaa Silsilaa Na Kaho
Ye Shahar Vo Hai Jahaan Raakshas Bhi Hai “Rahat”
Har Ek Taraashe Huye But Ko Devataa Na Kaho
Aainaa Saare Shahar Ki Binaai Le Gayaa
Dube Huye Jahaaz Pe Kyaa Tabsaraa Karen
Ye Haadasaa To Soch Ki Geharaai Le Gayaa
Haalaanki Bezubaan Thaa Lekin Ajib Thaa
Jo Shakhs Mujh Se Chhin Ke Goyaai Le Gayaa
Is Vaqt To Main Ghar Se Nikalane Na Paaungaa
Bas Ek Kamiz Thi Jo Meraa Bhaai Le Gayaa
Jhute Qaside Likhe Gaye Us Ki Shaan Men
Jo Motiyon Se Chhin Ke Sachchaai Le Gayaa
Yaadon Ki Ek Bhid Mere Saath Chhod Kar
Kyaa Jaane Vo Kahaan Meri Tanhaai Le Gayaa
Ab Asad Tumhaare Liye Kuchh Nahin Rahaa
Galiyon Ke Saare Sang To Saudaai Le Gayaa
Ab To Khud Apani Saansen Bhi Lagati Hain Bojh Si
Umron Kaa Dev Saari Tavanaai Le Gayaa
Is Jazire Ko Bhi Samandar De
Apanaa Cheharaa Talaash Karanaa Hai
Gar Nahin Aainaa To Patthar De
Band Kaliyon Ko Chaahiye Shabanam
In Chiraagon Men Roshani Bhar De
Pattharon Ke Saron Se Karz Utaar
Is Sadi Ko Koi Payambar De
Kahkahon Men Guzar Rahi Hai Hayaat
Ab Kisi Din Udaas Bhi Kar De
Phir Na Kahanaa Ke Khudkhushi Hai Gunaah
Aaj Fursat Hai Faisalaa Kar De
Safar Ki Had Hai Vahaan Tak Ke
Safar Ki Had Hai Vahaan Tak Ke Kuch Nishaan RaheChale Chalo Ke Jahaan Tak Ye Aasmaan Rahe

Masjidon Ke Sahan Tak
