Guzarta Saal

By Amir Husain

“Bahut kuch ek sa hai

Tum me aur mujhme is calendar sa.

Main december sa khatm hota hua,

Tu january si ek nayi subah.

Main yaadon mein khud ko samete huwe

,

Tu khwahishon ke pankhon ko khole hue.

Main sehra me ghum kisi musafir sa,

Tu ghar me aya hua naya mehman koi,

Itne qareeb hokar bhi hum dono ke darmiyan

Ek saal ki lambi doori hai.

Mera jana bhi ab kareeb,

Tera aana bhi toh zaroori hai.”
