let us say those words again

let us say those words again
some words that may touch us again
words that may make a poem
or a song
words that may dissolve into the iris of your eyes
and stay warm there
some words that remind us of days and nights gone by
words that may lead to other words may be new words
some words that may touch us again
words that may make a poem
or a song
words that fly from the tips of your fingers
and live on your lips
some words that may lead to new stories new threads
of new songs on lips on finger tips
let us say those words again
some words that have a name and a date
words that may touch us again
words that we could mount on our lips and keep
warm in our eyes
let us say those words again

chalo phir se muskaraayeN
chalo phir se geet gaayeN
jo guzar gayi haiN raateN
unheN phir jaga ke laayeN
jo bisar gayi haiN baateN
unheN yaad meN bulaayeN

For some reason your poem, kk, has the cadence of Faiz's nazm above...
