Aadat

wo ruthta raha main manata raha

us ki rahon main palkain bichata raha
najanay USKO ruthnay ki kesi aadat thi
na janay main ro kar b usay kion hasata raha

pir yun huwa aik bar WO esa rutha muj say
pir yun huwa US bar main mana na paya USKO
pareshan main tha yahan udas WO tha wahan
najanay kion main ro para per bata na paya USKO

pir huwa esa k farista-e-ajal aaj poncha liye mera
tha main intazar main esi k, pata tha ISKOpir kooch huwa yahan say huway duniya k ghum khatam
aur na pir roya main na hui koi aur ankh NAM
yeh 'DHANANJAY USKA' to tha aik bahana, tha kuch batana USKOper na bata paya main aur na hi kuch kiyaal aaya USKO

 Hum Ko Shouk Hai Itna Fareb Khaane Ka,

Dekh Hi Nahi Sakte Asal Rukh Zamane Ka,

Dhushmano Ki Mehfil Mein Ashna Se Chehre Hain,
Haa Yehi Hai Khamyaza Dosti Badhane Ka,

Woh Jo Chehre Pe Likhi Dastan Na Padh Paaye,
Faaida Nahi Hai Unko Haal-E-Dil Sunane Ka,

Qadar Ashar Jis Mein Ek Bhi Nahi Nikla,
Kyun Lihaaz Hai Humko Zamane Ka.

Khwaab Haqeekat Ho Jaaye

Gar Unko Mohabbat Ho Jaaye

Raat Ko Nikle Jab Chhat Pe
Chaand Ko Hairat Ho Jaaye

Mehfil Me Roshan Ho Chehra
To Dil Me Qayaamat Ho Jaaye

Utha Le Vo Chilman Jo Apni
Dekho Naa Shararat Ho Jaaye

Raho Me Khade Hain Unki
Kab 'DHANANJAY' Pe Inaayat Ho Jaaye

Aaj Kal Yeh Kyaa Ho Raha Hai
Bhalaa Karo Buraa Ho Raha Hai ...

Kar Diya Kisne Fasaad Shahar Me
Shor Gali Me BaDaa Ho Raha Hai ...

Dhoop Ke Saath Gayaa Din Aaj Kaa
Aasraa Kal Ke Aane Kaa Ho Raha Hai ...

Muflisii Ki Cheekh Sunii Nahi Kisi Ne
Baad Haadse Ke Ronaa Ho Raha Hai ...

Be-FikR Ghoom Rahi Hai YahaaN Beimaanii
Gali Gali Imaan Ka Saudaa Ho Raha Hai ...

Soyaa Nahi Kai RaatoN Se "DHANANJAY"
Mere Khwaab Ka Zakhm Haraa Ho Raha Hai ...

Mai toot kar jo bikhar gaya hun to sirf teri yaad mein,

Tanha jeena seekh raha hun to sirf teri yaad mein..!
Aata hai ajab lutf mujh ko teri yaad mein,
Jee raha hun khushi se,
To sirf teri yaad mein..!
Na jaane kia kashish hai teri yaad mein,
Ke main madhosh ho jata hun teri yaad mein..!
Likhon to kiya likhon teri yaad mein,
Sochta hun guzaar dun zindagi teri yaad mein..!!!

Na jaane kyon chahte hain wafa ishq me
Hamane to chaha vo hon be-wafa ishq me
Tadafta rahoon uske deedar ko main
Deti hai sukun aisi koi saza ishq me
Zuban par rahe hardam uska naam
Aise hi jeene ka hai maza ishq me
Tere dilkash tasavvur ka aisa asar ho
Utre naa kabhi uska nasha ishq me
Kabhi naa ho jaaye koi aisa sitam
Ho jaaye tu mujhse khafa ishq me
Main sada karta rahunga tujhe sazda
Teri berukhi hi hai anmol tohfa ishq me
'DHANANJAY' ki bandagi aa jaye us mukaam pe
Chah ke bhi tu ho na sake juda ishq me

saaya hu raat ki veerangi se darta hu
kabhi kabhi armano ki aawargi se darta hu

muqammal koi jaha nahi ye janta hu main magar
apne hi khawabo ki ek deewangi se darta hu..

E khuda mujh pe raha tera karam kuch is tarah
dua me haath uthata hu par, rawangi se darta hu

main fakeero ki tarah har dar se u to guzra hu
din bhar bhatakta hu magar, aawargi se darta hu..

tere mere darmiya kuch hoke bhi kuch anjaan hai
bikhre hue lamho ki is bechargi se darta hu...

Zamaana na mera raqeeb hota

Kaise tu mera habeeb hota

Mil jaati mohabbat duniya me
Fir kaise mai tere kareeb hota

Paana na chahe tujhe is jag me
Kaun dil se itna gareeb hota

Barasti hain teri rahmaten sab par
Fir kyon na tera naam najeeb hota

Ho jaata fanah tere kadmon me
Kaash aisa 'DHANANJAY' ka naseeb hota

unko humse mohabbat hai, dil ko yeh bharam kyun hua?
be-intehaa chaha tha jise, bewafa wo sanam kyun hua?

khwaab sare aankhon mein hi, choor choor ho gaye!
aye khuda! tu hi bata, mujh par hi yeh sitam kyun hua?

duaa jo du unko, toh lagta unhe jaise bad-duaa hai
apno ke liye aakhir, itna bura mera karam kyun hua?

bhari mehafil apna, dard-e-dil baya kar rahi hun aaj
ashqon ke sang khatm, ankhon ka sharam kyun hua?

ilzaam, gumnaami, zillat hi, faqat hai mujhe haasil
khuda hi janta hai, aakhir 'DHANANJAY' ka janam kyun hua?

Rangeeniya idher ki agar
hain gunah us paar ja ke,
safer e dast ko chhodo ji,
kya karanaa hai us paar ja ke.

jaisee karnee waisee bharnee,
to roz e hashr se dar kaisa,
saaki wahi pilaa de aur,
jo peena hai us paar ja ke.

is aalam ke aaine bhii,
jhoothe hain insaa.n kii tarah,
jalim kitne syah dil hai.n
jaananaa hai us paar ja ke.

us ke julm o sitam ka main,
keh doonga insaaf hua,
mardood ko apne kadmon par,
gar pana hai us paar ja ke.

kya haale jaan batayen hun,
is tan ko hai aaraam kahan,
safar yahan ik karna hai,
ik karana hai us paar ja ke.

sang pe sar ko patke hai,
buton pe zoothii tihmat bhii,
shayad us "DHANANJAY" ko kuch
bharna hai us paar ja ke.

Hatheli samne rakhna...

Ke sab ansoo giren is mein
jo ruk jaye honto per...
samjh jana ke wo hon main
.
Kabhi jo chand ko dekho...
To tum yun muskra dena...
Ke phir badal bhi ajaen..
samjh jana ke wo hon main
.
Jo chal jaye hawa thandi..
To ankhen band kerlena...
Jo jhonka tez ho sab se..
samjh jana ke wo hon main
.
jo zada yaad ao main...
to ro lena jee bhar ke
Agar hichki koi aye...
to samjh jana ke wo hon main
.
Agar tum bhoolna chaho
mujhe shayed bhula do tum
magar jab saans aye gi..
samjh jana ke wo hon main..

Sochta hon ke woh kitne masoom thay
kya se kya ho gaye dekhte dekhte

Mein ne pathar se jin ko banaya sanam
woh khuda ho gaye dekhte dekhte

Hashr hai wahshat e dil ki awargi
hum se poocho muhabbat ki deewangi

Jo pata poochte thay kisi ka kabhi
La-pata ho gaye dekhte dekhte

Hum se yeh soch kar koi waada karo
aik waaday pe umrein guzar jayein gi

Yeh hai dunya yahan kitne ehl e wafa
bewafa ho gaye dekhte dekhte

Ghair ki baat tasleem kya kee jiye
ab to khud par bhi hum ko bharosa nahi

Apna saaya samajhte thay jin ko kabhi
woh juda ho gaye dekhte dekhte

Sochta hon ke woh kitne masoom thay
kya se kya ho gaye dekhte dekhte

Tum apna raNj-O-gham, apni pareshani mujhe de do.
tumhe gham ki kasam, Is dil ki veerani mujhe de do.

(yeh maana maiN kaabil nahi hooN in nigahoN main)-2
burah kya hai agar, yeh dukh yeh hairani mujhe de do.

(maiN dekhu to sahi, duniyaa tumhe kaise satati hai)-2
thode din ke liye, apni nighebanii mujhe de do.

(woh dil jo maine maaNga tha, magar gairoNe paya)-2
badi inaayat hai agar, uski pashemaani mujhe de do

aadat hi bana li hai
is shehar k logo ne
andaaz badal lena
awaz badal lena
dunya ki mohbt mai
atwaar badal lena
mosam jo naya aye,
raftar badal lena
aghyar wohi rakhna,
ahbab badal lena
aadat hi bana li hai
rasty mai agar milna
nazron ko jhuka lena
awaz agar dun to,
katra k nikal jana
har ik se juda rehna
har ik se khafa rehna
har ik se gila karna
jaaty hue raahi ko,
manzil ka pata de kar,
rasty mai rula dena
aadat hi bana li hai
is shehar k logo ne

Dayaar-E-Gair Main Kaise Bulaataa Tujhe
Phir Kidhar Ka Pataa Bataataa Tujhe....

Shaayad Taa-Umr Main Kostaa Khud Ko
Bin Ijaazat Jo Seene Se Lagaataa Tujhe ...

Shab-E-Tanhaai Ka Jo Dard Bayaa Kiya Tuune
Gar Hotaa Paas Mere Maraham Lagaataa Tujhe ...

Teri Yaad Ne Kuch Bhi Kaha Nahi Mujhse
Varnaa Khayal Ke Aansoo Dikhaataa Tujhe ...

Aksar Mann MaiN Aata Hai Tujhe Bhuul JaaouN
"Dhananjay" Haath Ki Lakeer Se Kaise Mitaataa Tujhe ...
