NAYI

Adding to the verses of the great poet Shabeena Adeeb

Khwabo mein dooba jagta raha
Neend kahin kho gayi hai
Jokhim koi bhi bada nahi
Zindagi mili nayi nayi hai

Jo sambhle hon gir kar kayi martaba
Rukna nahi wo jaante
Dekh kar baitha udaas tumhe
Chook shayad nayi nayi hai

Hain sadiyo se baithe oonchi imaarto mein jo
Hain pesh ana khoob jaante
Mizaaj apka dekh kar hai lagta
Shauhrat apki nayi nayi hai

Haatho mein haath daale chale dono
Khaamosh lab, palke jhuki hui hain
Ho rahi ulfat dilo mein unke
Abhi toh mohabbat nayi nayi hai

Suna raha tha prem kahani apni
Kis tarah tute dil ko siya hai
Beh chale do aansu palko se tumahre
Chot shayad nayi nayi hai
