jaanib e sheh'r e yaraaN / towards memoryville

jaanib  e sheh'r e yaraaN


yaad e raftgaaN seenay say laga'aye
aashna chehrouN ki yaad saja'aye
oon galiouN dukanON ko
dobara daikhnay ki khaawhish li'aye
chalay thay ujalay maiN hum

towards memoryville

embracing ensconced memories
of people & places left behind
packed and left
to re-embrace them once again
