Taareekh

Agar hamari kahaani ko mukammal hona hoga,
to koi mausam, koi mushkil, koi ranjish, koi iraada, koi waqt, koi shaqs humko todd nahin paayega.
Magar agar sitaaron sa toot kar hi humko zindagi ko mukaam dena padda, kisi daur mein aa kar koi faisala lena padda,
To yaad rakhna ki mohabbat pehle bhi thi, ab bhi hai aur umr bhar rahegi,
Maujoodgiyon ki bas zara kami si rahegi, taareekein dohraayengi khud ko, saal badalte rahenge, hum bhi alag raahon par Chalte rahenge,
Par har solaah october ko jab din ka ek pal tham sa jaayega,
Aur guzre waqt ka aayeena saaf nazar aayega, to bas muskuraana yahi yaad Kar ke,
Ki taareekh mujhe bhi yaad hai aur hum tum ab bhi ek dusre ki Khushi ka bahaana Hain.
