Badi der hui

Badi der hui, na jaane kahan tha main,
kisi khayal me bahot door nikal aaya khud se hi
mud ke dekha to na to wo mod tha
jahan tumne apna rumaal baanda tha,
na hi wo darakth jahan wo do panchi raha karte the
Badi der hui kisi khayal me bahot door nikal aaya

Ab lauta hun to sab badal gya hai,
lagta hai shayad waqt apni chaal chal gya hai
kis se puchu pta tera ab, ye hawa bhi anjaani si lagti hai,
teri hansi ko doondh rha hu, bas utna hi wada kiya tha tumne
Badi der hui na jaane kahan tha main
kisi khayal me bahot door nikal aaya tum se bhi

ae zindagi

kahin ugta hoga suraj kisi chor par,
kahin angdaai leti hogi zindagi, alsaayi si,
main tak rha hun is ghangor andhere ko.

Bas chup-chaap sa phaila hai ye smaa,
kahin koi panchi bol jaata hai door kahin,
lagta hai jaise awaaz di ho mujhe hi.

kyu talaash rha hun main nishaa zindagi k,
kyu hain mere haathon me ye bejaan pathar
kyu main bhaagna chahta hun khud se hi
khain pehchaan na lun khud ko hi..

ae zindagi bas aa bhi jaa,
...aur thaam le haath mera.

ye tadap....

I almost forgot that I used to maintain a blog too..Life has been very busy over a couple of years,wasn't able to devote much time to writing.But I cannot withold this "tadap" to write something and let the words flow.

Lafzon ki badi tadap hai fail jaane ki kagaz par,
khwaish hai bharne ki uska korapan.
Mere haathon se fislate ye lamhe bhi to
bhikhar jaate hain meri zindagi me
bharne iska korapan..

Roz kuch nya likhta hai waqt, mere man ke kagaz par,
lamhon ki kalam se, haqiqat ki syaahi se..
jo bane tasveer tumhaari agar to bas
wahi rok dun is zindagi ki nazm ko.

For this poem i could not think a title...so ye aap par chodta hun...koi acha sa title suggest karna...

Har din ek bechaini si rehti hai,
jaise koi panchi apne ghronde ko chod kar
nikal aaya ho kahin door
aur tadpta ho waapis laut aane ko..

ko baat yaad aati hai achanak hi baithe hue
jaise barsa ho paani tere aanchal se
aur mehek uthi ho zameen meri..

bda mushkil kat-ta hai waqt, har shaam
chat par jo dekhu door tak phaile aasman ko...
har roz bhejta hun
kuch badal tumhaari taraf sametkar mera pyaar..

hansi to abhi bhi aati hai hontho par,
par un baaton par nahin, jo tumhaare saath
jiya karte the,
muskurahate to band hai kahi,
aur chaabi to tumhaare paas hai...

khushboo tuhaare aaghosh ki dhoondta hu
khud me aksar, jo sambhal kar rakhi hai
har us jagah, jahan chua tha tumne..

karta hu min-nte waqt se, guzarne ki jaldi,
aur dhoond laane ki us lamhe ko
jab kho jaega waqt, aur shayad hum bhi ek doosre me...

Rang.....

Aaj ek badi ajeeb si baat hui,
jo dekha aaine me khud ko roz ki tarah
to saamne khda paya ek aur hi shaks..

bada hi itminaan sa,
alag hi rangon me ranga ek shaks.
usne muskura kar pukara mujhe
aur pucha - pehchana mujhe...

main hairaan tha,
kyunki wo lagta tha mujh sa hi
par main kab se rang gya khud ko
mujhe khud hi pta nai..





meri uljhan dekhkar wo hans diya
aur kehnelga
"ye rang, ye dhang
ye chain-o-sukun tumne hi to diya hai mujhe
jab tumne kisi ke hawale kiya tha khud ko..
bas tabhi se tabiyat ne rang badla hai.
ye sabhi nishaan hai usi ehsaas ke,
ishq ne ranga hai mujhe...bas ab to
jhoom rha hai har ang usiki preet me"

aur jaate waqt wo kehkar gya
"karo shukriya us insaan ka
jisne di tumhe jagah apni zindagi me"
phir maine socha tumhara naam...
aur ban gya khushganwaar ek aur din!!!

Jee karta hai...

Long time no writing...this was what i was thinking all these days...as i was flipping acroos my old writings i found this piece..yeah i tried some ghazals too...so read n enjoy..






Udaas man ko behlaane ka jee karta hai,
aaj nagma koi gungunaane ka jee karta hai.

kuch na kha tumne, phir bhi sab sun liya maine,
tumhaari wafa me aaj mar jaane ka jee karta hai.

kyu chali hai ye hawa aaj kuch aisi,
apne tan ki khaak udaane ka jee karta hai.

jo dekhu kisi ko mazboor sa kahin bhi,
uske ashko me beh jaane ka jee karta hai.

aaj wo bhi baitha hai bechain sa tanhaai me,
uske khayaalon me aane ka jee karta hai.

tum to chale hi gaye the na chod kar beech raah me,
phir kyu na bhulun jo bhulaane ka jee karta hai..
