Uski woh ek cigarette

Kal uski ek cigarette
mere paas reh gayi.
Milne aayi thi woh subah banke, lekin
Kal uski raat mere paas reh gayi.

Talab usse dhundwayegi,
Uski woh ek cigarette.
Roz se zyada yaad aaunga main,
Baatein bohot ki thi humne, lekin
Kal uski aankon ki chuppi mere saath reh gayi.

Phone karegi mujhe,
Cigarette lautane ko kahegi,
Keh rahi thi zindagi ne sairaab kiya hai use, lekin
Kal uski pyaas mere paas reh gayi.

Agli baar jab milegi,
Pehli baat uss ek cigarette ki hogi,
Phoot-phoot kar royi thi woh,
Apne aansu se sukoon churaya hoga usne, lekin
Kal use rota dekhna ka dard mere saath reh gaya,
Kal uski ek cigarette mere paas reh gayi.
