Tera intezaar

Subha se kar rahe the tera intezaar
Chai ke saath
Dost ke saath
Shaayari ke saath
Baadal bhi utsaahit ho rahe the 
Teri ek jhalak ke liye

Havaa bhi betaab ho rahi thi 

Tere saath jhoom ne ke liye
Shaayad tu aaj hume milegi nahi 
Humpe apna jaadoo barsaayegi nahi
Lekin tune humaari umeed nahi todi 
Thodi der lagaadi par tu ayi to sahi 
Itni barsaati hui aayi 

Kitni saari baatein karti hui aayi
Tip tip tip tip tip
Jharmar jharmar
Voh meethi khushboo le aayi 
Khubsurat jaga ko aur madhur bana diya
Teri boondon ki aahat ne 
Mehfil ko roshan kar diya 
Dil khol diya 
Mann bhar diya 
Mausam badal diya 
Aur phir teri khaatir humein 
  yeh kavita likhni padi
