Gazals

Muje keh toh dete, jaane se pehle
Tuje yaad kar leta, bulane se pehle

Kitne motiyoon ki maut aaj hogi,
Yeh sooch toh lete rulane se pehle

Sache dil k andar khuda basta hai
Kash jaan jaate tum dukhane se pehle

Dekh k ujra dil ko log keh rahen hain
Mehfil yahan thee veerane se pehle

Dil k baat ho toh sab dil ki sunte hain
Kon puchta hai zamane se pehle

Apne ko dusare ki b nazrun se tolo
Khud dhoob k dekho dubane se pehle

Naye yaar k sang muje dekh k woh bhole
"Chahat" rista toh todh lete purane se pehle

-------------------------------------------------------

Dard ko dil mein chupa k dekh liya
Yeh bhi tera hai azma k dekh liya

Pyar chupta nahi chupane se
Sab ko humne bhata k dekh liya

Door ja k bhi jee na payen ge donu
Ek baar pass aa k dekh liya

Log kehten hain baad mein hai rona hi rona
Pyar mein muskra ke dekh liya

Uss k siva kuch aur bahir na nikla
Dil chira dikha k dekh liya

Apnu se ghair hi ho gaye hain apne
Ghair ko apna bana k dekh liya

Ansu bhi kabhi kabhi dete hai khusiyaan
"Chahat" aaj khud ko rula k dekh liya.
