Mujhe aadat hai..

Sookhe hue aansuuon ke jazbaat nahi hote..
Mujhe rone ki aadat hai mujhe manaao mat..

Khwaabon se ladaai bhi, khwaabon ki zidd bhi..
Mujhe sone ki aadat hai mujhe uthaao mat..

Aaina churaa le gaya hai aks mera..
Mujhe khone ki aadat hai, mujhe bulaao mat..

Ek hasrat bas raat ko hi haqiqat banti hai..
Mujhe andhere ki aadat hai roshni jalaao mat..

Aatishbaazi khoob ho chuki hain mere armaanon ki..
Mujhe tadapne ki aadat hai mujhe behlaao mat..

Apni rooh mein samandar chhupa rakha hai maine..
Mujhe doobne ki aadat hai mujhe bachaao mat..

Har baar ek nayi intehaa kaayam hoti hai dard ki..
Dil jalaane ki aadat hai mujhe, mujhe samjhaao mat..

Hathkadiyaan is baar zaraa lambi lagii hain..
Marne ki yun bhi aadat hai mujhe, zinda magar dafnaao mat..
