Bura Waqt

Sachche dil se mango dua toh, naseeb badal jaata hai
Waqt kitna hi bura kyuN na ho, aakhir tal jaata hai

Oonche mehlon waale, kabhi zameen ki bhi khabar rakh
Ke ugta hua suraj bhi, shaam hote hote dhal jaata hai

Chaar din ki jawani par, naaz mat kar maati ke putle
Ke saansoN ke chalte chalte hi, phir dam nikal jaata hai

Mat soch teri khairaat se hi, wabasta uski hayaat hai
Ke bin maa aur baap ke bhi toh, bachcha pal jaata hai

Ai insaan rah naadim apne gunaah par, us rabb ke aage
Phir dekh tu kaise gir kar bhi, dobara sambhal jaata hai

“Aqsh” kuch nahiN toh tu, apne muskurahat se nawaaz de
Ke tute hue khilone se bhi toh, bachcha behal jaata hai...
