Ek Shahar

Aakh khulti hai roz subh,
Kya ajeeb yeh sapna lagta hai,
Sapno mein dekha jo Shahar,
Kya sahi mein waisa lagta hai?

Kismat khuli ek subh,
Manzil ka ishara lagta hai,
Sochta raha mein raat bhar,
Woh shahar kaisa lagta hai?

Kuch toh khass hai yaha,
Jo yeh ghar sa lagta hai,
Raat hote hi yeh shahar,
Bilkul sapne jaisa lagta hai.
