Raah Yeh Patthareeli Si

More ke pankh ke jaisi hai rangeeli si,
Phir bhi yeh zindagi to hai zehereeli si...
Jaaney kaisey jee lete hai log ise,
Hum ko to lagti hai sez yeh kateeli si….

Moti ki tarah jazbaat dil mein rehte hai,
Lekin hum kisi sey kuch nahin kehte hai..
Koi kehkashan nahin milta is dagar mein,
Dekh li hum ney raah yeh pathhreeli si….

Ek leher ki tarah muhabbat chali aati hai,
Humko khud se hi gumraah kar jaati hai…
Kinare se takraati hui phir laut jaati hai,
Saath le jaati hai zindagi-e-rei't geeli si…
