Some of his Shayari's:
Lagta hai aaj zindagi kuch khafa hai,
Chaliye choriye, Kaunsi pehli dafa hai
Jab bhi dil ye udaas hota hai,
Jaane kaun aas paas hota hai
Koi waada nahi kiya lekin,
Kyun tera intezaar rehta hai
Kabhi toh chaunk ke dekhe koi humari taraf,
Kisi ki aankh mei humko bhi intezaar dikhe.
Waqt rehta nahi kahi tik kar,
aadat iss ki bhi aadmi si hai.
Kaun kehta hai hum jhooth nahi bolte,
Ek baar khairiyat toh pooch ke dekhiye.
Thoda sukoon bhi dhoondiye janab,
Yeh zarooratein toh kabhi khatam nahi hongi.
