The thought or idea for this poem came to me while I was walking under my umbrella on a rainy evening. At that moment, I wished that someone was there with me, walking by my side under the light drizzle. That’s how I came up with the first stanza, and then the rest followed naturally. Unfortunately, this poem follows the same theme as my other poems: waiting for that someone special to come into my life and make it a bit easier.
Baarish hone pe apni chatri ke neeche yun chalta hoon ke ek baalish jagah reh jaaye
Gar woh bheegi si aaye tau kisi aur ki chatri ke neeche na chali jaaye
Ab tau aaina bhi lagadia hai apne kamre ki singhaar mez par
Kisi roz tau uska aks jhalkega jab woh khari hogi ban sawar kar
Naye bartan khareed ke bawarchi khaane main rakhne laga hoon
Woh kabhi mehmaan banke aai tau sharminda na hoon
Lobaan ko jala tau dia hai par woh mehekne se inkaar karta hai
Woh bhi mere mehboob ke qadmo ki khusboo ka intezar karta hai
Aaj kal rokne laga hoon gunah karne se apne aap ko
Dur rakhna chahta hoon us pakeezah se apne har ek paap ko
Us andekhi pari ke liye ek taweel zakheera-e-alfaz sambhaal ke rakhi hai
Yeh nazam bhi tau unhi ko sunane ke liye likhi hai
