Laakad

Was listening to this song from Omkara, penned down by Gulzaar, and it leaves no doubts why he is the best........
wish I could write like this

Laakad jal ke koyla hoye jaaye
koyla ho jaaye khaak
jiya jale to kuch na hoye re
na dhuaan na raakh
jiya na jalaiyo re
jiya na jalaiyo re
jiya na lagaiyo re

Baraf pighal ke paani hoye jaaye re
badal ban ud jaaye
peed jiya main aisi baithi re baithi
aisi baithi re baithi
na pighle na jaayere
nadi kinaare behte sahare
naav na lagaiyo re
na lagaiyo re
jiya na lagaiyo re
jiya na jalaiyo re

jhoote vachan saari baatein
jhoote vachan sab saari baatein
rut bharkha ka paani
garaj baras sab beh jaave re
jee ne jitni maani
sawan se ye na bhujne ki
jaan na jalaiyo re
jiya na jalaiyo re
jiya na jalaiyo re
