Aakhri Khat

Aakhri baar baat hui jab likh raha khabbarnaama

Tuney kaha ab na aana to me kabhi nahi aaya

Lekin ab baat karna hai zaroori

Meri saansain ghat'ti jaari aur dharkanay kam hori

Mujhe moat ke farishtey sunaana chahrey lori

Par ye khat likhna zaruri kyunke

Kaafi batain maazi ki mere seene pe hain sorahi

Meri darkhanay kam horaheen

Meri dharkanain kam horaheen

Meri dharkanain kam horaheen

Me jaanta hun, tera ghussa bhi jayiz hai

Me jaanta hun, tu ghussay ka qaayil hai

Ye zeher bhi tujhe mila hua hai viraasat me

Tu baha de ragon se jo waqt tujhe ijaazat de

Jaanta hun jab tuney apni jaan lena chahi

Jaanta hun qaddar teri dunya ko na qaddar aaye

Jaanta hun jo kuch tuney khoya is raaste pe

Jaanta un saaron ko jo maiyyat pe naachenge

Jaanta tum kitne mehroom rahe pyaar se

Me jaanta ye sab ke ham aik kashti ke sawaar

Aur me ye har giz nahi chahta ke tum mere jese bano

Me aik buri misaal, mujh jeson se bacho

Meri hi wajah se tere rishte gaye toot

Par tu jaanta insaaf ke karway hote hain ghoont

Aur me peeta raha hun, tabhi mujhme wo shaamil

Me nas nas ko maar ke bana hun apna qaatil

Tu badal de mustaqbil ke waqt abhi bhi baaqi

Yaad rakhna waada aur nibhaana zimedaari

Meri tarhan sheher kabhi chor ke na jaana

Meri tarhan apne khwaabon ko phaansi pe na latkaana

Me Jaanta nai nikal sake tum abu ki moat se

Me jaanta ya jaanta jo koi apna kho de

Me jaanta tu ghussa ke koi na tere saath tha

Tu kyun rakh raha umeedain in logon se kya waasta?

Ye ranj, gham, ghussa yehi khagya meri zaat ko

Me yehi kehna chahta ke ab is zeher ko nikaal do

Warna kuch saalon me tum bhi wahin pe hoge

Jahan pe aaj me hun khara tum hath malo ge

Me har wo wajah ke tum khud ko badal sako

Me tumhaara kal umeed tum yaqeen kar sako

(deep breath)

Me umeed karta hun ke yeh khat tum tak waqt pe pohunch jaega

Waqt bohot kam hai

Waqt bohot kam hai

♪

Ye us dost ke naam jo shayad kuch saal dur hai

Wo dost jiski saans meri saans se majboor hai

Me maaafi maanga chahta ke tum phans chuke is haal me

Me sharminda hun ke sab biggar gaya chand saal me

Me maanta meri wajah se mukkamal nahi hosake

Gham seene me le gaye tum aansu nahi rosake

Maanta ghudgharzi thi me maanta ye ghalat tha

Par kya karta me dost mujhe aata nahi tha tareeka

Kese chupaana seene me dabba hua malaal

Kese hona khamosh chup rehna sab jaan kar

Mera seena phat'ta jara tha aur rooh ko karna kooch tha

Me in sab sawaalon ke jawaab kis se puchta?

Me kis ko batata ke me hun kis fasaad me

Me hans ke dikhaata raha ban ke azaad

Mere dhong ki kamiyaabi hi shayad tera zawaal tha

Koi pakar nahi paya tera dost bhi kamaal tha

Dilaata raha bharosa ke wo theek hai wo theek nai

Aur jhonpri khamosh me hi toofaa me bheeg gai

Par ab koi faida nahi kisi qisam ki behes ka

Hosake to rakh lena laaj mere rehes ka

Bata dena unko bhi ke meri kya wajoohaat thi

Sirf meri nahi ghalti ye dunya bhi badzaat thi

Qismat ke maslay kuch ghaib ke hain pangay

Tabhi aaj ye haath apne khoon me hain rangay
