Khayal

Afroz Alam

bachpan men man-bap ka saaya

javani tanha tanha

aaj khayal ke galiyare se

kis vaadi men pahuncha huun

jahan mujhe aisa lagta hai

tanhai sannata ban kar

mera pichha karti hai

shayad koi yaad ka saaya

ik monis ik sathi hai

kabhi kabhi

aisa lagta hai

ye gulnar jivan mera

aise mod pe chhodega

jahan na koi sathi hoga

aur na koi monis

bas meri tanhai hogi

biite dinon ki yaden hongi

aise khayalat satate hain

jab jab main tanha hota huun
