Bas tum mere paas raho

[dahivada]

Sochta hoon kabhi tum mere saamne baithi raho,
Aur main bas tumhe dekhta rahun, tum kuch kehti raho,
Tumhari baaton mein yunhi shaam se raat ho jaaye,
Aur humein pata bhi na chale kab ye mulaqat yaad ho jaaye.

Sochta hoon kabhi tum thak kar mera naam pukaro,
Aur main bina pooche tumhara haath thaam loon,
Na koi vaada ho, na mohabbat ka koi iqraar ho,
Bas tum mere paas raho aur ye pal baar baar ho.

Kabhi tumhari zulfon mein ungliyan phira kar tumhe sulaya karun,
Tumhari saari pareshaaniyan apni baaton mein bhulaya karun,
Tum kuch na kaho aur main tumhari khamoshi samajh jaun,
Tumhari aankhon mein chhupe har sawaal ka jawab ban jaun.

Kabhi baarish mein tum mere saath bheegti raho,
Aur bheegte hue bhi mujhse apni chhoti chhoti baatein kehti raho,
Main tumhe dekhta rahun aur mausam se shikayat karta rahun,
Ke baarish kyun ho rahi hai jab tumhari aankhein hi kaafi hain.

Kabhi kisi anjaan sheher ki galiyon mein tumhare saath chalun,
Tum jis raaste ko chuno main usi raaste par tumhare saath chalun,
Na manzil ki fikr ho na ghar lautne ki jaldi,
Bas tumhara haath ho mere haath mein aur safar chalta rahe yunhi.

Kabhi tum naraz ho jao toh tumhe manaya karun,
Tumhari ek muskurahat ke liye sau bahaane banaya karun,
Tum gusse mein mera naam bhi na lena chaho agar,
Main chupchaap tumhare paas baith kar tumhara gussa dekha karun.

Kabhi tumhari aankhon se neend chura kar raat bhar baatein karun,
Tumhare guzre hue kal ko bina kisi sawaal ke suna karun,
Tum jo kuch bhoolna chaho use main kabhi yaad na dilaaun,
Aur jo kuch tum yaad rakhna chaho use umr bhar sambhal kar rakhun.

Kabhi zindagi hum dono ko thoda sa waqt de,
Na duniya ka shor ho na kisi bichhadne ka darr rahe,
Main tumhare kandhe par sar rakh kar bas itna keh doon,
Ki agar ye pal sach hai toh mujhe kisi khwab ki zarurat nahi.
