aaGaaz to hotaa hai anjaam nahii.n hotaa


aaGaaz to hotaa hai anjaam nahii.n hotaa 
jab merii kahaanii me.n vo naam nahii.n hotaa 

[aaGaaz = start; anjaam = end/result]

jab zulf kii kaalikh me.n ghul jaaye ko_ii rahii 
bad_naam sahii lekin gum_naam nahii.n hotaa 

[kaalikh = blackness]

ha.Ns ha.Ns ke javaa.N dil ke ham kyo.n na chune.n Tuka.De 
har shaKhs kii qismat me.n inaam nahiin hotaa 

bahate hue aa.Nsuu ne aa.Nkho.n se kahaa tham kar
jo mai se pighal jaaye vo jaam nahii.n hotaa

din Duube hai.n yaa Duubii baaraat liye kashtii 
saahil pe magar ko_ii koharaam nahiin hotaa
