“Main Zinda Nahi… Bas Ruka Hua Hoon:”

“Kuch log marte nahi… bas dheere dheere khatam ho jaate hain, bina kisi ko bataye.” 🖤

– Zulfikar Inamdar

“Main Zinda Nahi… Bas Ruka Hua Hoon”

Arz kiya hai ke…

Tera khayal hi kaafi hai zinda rehne ko,
Main mar na jaaun… tu agar waqai chali aaye…

Sach kahun…
Toh main jee bhi nahi raha,
Bas maut aur zindagi ke beech kahin atka hua hoon…

Teri yaadon ne mujhe itna bhar diya hai,
Ke ab mere andar mere liye jagah hi nahi bachi…

Main jab hasta hoon na…
Toh andar kahin ek cheekh dab jaati hai,
Aur jab rota hoon…
Toh lagta hai jaise koi aur ro raha ho mere andar…

Tera naam ab dua nahi raha,
Ek bojh ban gaya hai…
Jo har saans ke saath uthata hoon…
Aur har raat gir jaata hoon…

Maine tujhe itna chaha hai…
Ke ab mohabbat se bhi darr lagta hai,
Kyunki mohabbat ab sukoon nahi deti…
Sirf aadat ban kar dard deti hai…

Tu door hai…
Aur shayad isi liye khoobsurat hai,
Kyunki haqeeqat mein mil gayi…
Toh shayad itni khaas na lage…

Aur main…
Main bhi toh wahi hoon na…
Jo tere khayalon mein perfect lagta hai,
Magar haqeeqat mein toot chuka hai…

Ajeeb si zid hai meri bhi…
Main tujhe paana nahi chahta ab,
Main sirf yeh chahta hoon…
Ke main tujhe bhool bhi na paun…

Kyunki agar tu yaadon se bhi chali gayi…
Toh mere paas bachega hi kya…?

Ek khaali jism…
Jisme na rooh hogi, na awaaz…
Bas ek chalti hui aadat…

Aur phir ek din…
Main waise hi muskurate hue khatam ho jaaunga,
Jaise kabhi zinda hi nahi tha…

Aur agar us din tu waqai mere saamne aa gayi na…
Toh main tujhe pehchaan bhi na paun…

Kyunki jisne tujhe chaha tha…
Woh insaan toh kab ka mar chuka hoga…
