akhtar rizvi sahib

baithi hun aas lagaye,

shayad pardesi aaye….!!


khushiyon ne naata tora

zakhmo se rishta jora

aankhon me khwab saje hain

aasha ne sath na chora,

ab doori sahi na jaye

shayad pardesi aaye…!!


jab mausam tarpata hai

dukh aur bhi barh jata hai

jab chalti hai purwai

har dard ubhar aata hai,

duniya se jee ghabraye

shayad pardesi aaye….!!


jab kaga chat par bole

mera chancha man dole

ek aas si dil me jaage

gaun main hole hole

phir yad teri behlaye

shayad pardesi aaye…!!


jab chand gagan pe chamke

dil yaad me teri dharke

jab door papiha bole

aankhon se aansoo dhalke;

ab tujh bin raha na jaye

shayad pardesi aaye….!!


tujh bin kaise jeeti hun

vish ka pyala peeti hun

jab cheren chanchal sakhiyan

main honton ko seeti hun

dil kisko kya batlaye

shayad pardesi aaye…!!!
