BHOOT-KAAL

Ek kashti hoon, jo kinare se chootne ka naaam hi nahi lety..

Ek safar hoon, jo chaukhat se chalne ki ghunjaish nahi dety..

Bahar baarish bejiichak behte jharno ko tarash rahi hai..

Kambal ko aude, dum ghut-te takiye ko pyron ke beech mein panah deke,

main apne neend ki syahi se khwab bun raha hoon..

Bistar pe leta koyi aur bhi hai..

Shayad, mere wajood, mera yakeen ya hai mera bharosa..

Dharte gidgidate, meine mehsoos kiya..

Mere beete hune kal se buni rajayiii..

Ye bhoot bhi kaal banke leta hai..

Samajh gaya sahil se kashti tak ka safar hi tai karna dha.. 

Dauda mein bhavishya ki taraf..

MILAVAT

 In kale-safed tasveeron mein kuch zyada hi sach hai

Rang to hum banate hein, jo aankhon ki usoolon pe banti hai

Vakt ka milavat bi ajeeb hai, woh soch ki dhaara se  aage chalti hai

Ek naksha hai samne, jo rangeen hoti rahti hai

Chupe huve soch ko, ubarthe huve sach ko, milavat se pehle parakh lena..

Na jane yeh aankhein keh rahi hai,

Baarish se pehle hi bheeg lena..

CHUNAV

 

Sach hai soch tajurbhe se banti hai,

Dil ke har peymane ko karibi se woh tarashti hai..

Par socho..

Doosron ke soch ko samajhna bhi, apne aap mein ek khoobi hai

Bante bigadte rishto ko, pyar ke chadar se bun na bhi is zamane ki zaroorat hai

Gum ko badaava hum hi de te hain

Pyar ka sahara sirf hum he lete hain

Apne soch ko parkho, chuno gum se zyada zindagi ko..

Jeetne ya haarne se, ei dosth chalte jaana zyada zaroori hai..

Tootta Tara

Din ke pareshaniyon ko samet kar, raat ko aah pahuncha

Maathe ke paseena ko paunchte, nazar aasman tak ja pahuncha.

Tabhi nazar ayaa...

Raat be jaise apne zakmon ko mita rahe the,

kaali chaadar pe bikhre sheeshe ko jaise hata rahe the.

Aake chath pe gira, woh totta huva tara...

Jhat se aankh band meine bhe ttaan li, kuch maangta hun pyaara,

Pyaare toh kayee the, par sirf wohi yaad ayi.

Tootte tare se pooncha, kya mumkin hai tootte rishte ko judna.

Kitni beraham hei ye takdeer...

Kismat se apne huve noore-sitaron ko,

aukat di sirf ek shamee ki,

Na kadar ki, na jaan paya, Parvaana tha usi shamee ki.

Ab sirf ek parchayi hai, ek bujhta lau hai, bahti duva hai...

Bichara tootta tara kya kare, tum toh khud bichda hai apne yaar se.

Aavo chath pe mehfil banayee,

Yaadon ki chaadar bichaye, tum aasman mein, me is zameen pe...

Bikhre yaadon ki  chaadar bichaye, tum aasman mein, me is zameen pe...

KHOJ

Likhta hu apne aap ke liye,

par khabar nahi is 'aap' ki |

kuch adhoore savaal hai,

par javaab nahin is 'aap' ki|

'Aap' se 'tum' tak ki doori mein,

hai pehchani meine tumari gahrayi ko |

log guzar gaye, samay guzar gaya,

us gaharayi ko parakhne ki chahat na badli |

shouk na badli usmein doobna, phir kood ke usmein tyrna |

Khoj jaari hai unhi gaharayiyon mein

jo hai roshni se parhez, ya hai rooh ke noor se naadan |

Kahta rahta hoon khud se, mein abh bhi vahi hoon,

maloom nahi ki tum vahi ho ya nahi |

kashmakash jaari hai, khud ko bachane ki, khud mein samane ki |

Lekin jab tum jo 'aap' ban gaye

ham to raakh ban gaye |

tumhare lotne ke intezaar mein, hum to logoon ke zubaan ke chand lafz ban gaye |

'Haqeekat' ho ya mere man ki koyi "harkat'

intezaar jaari hein apne aap ki

'aap' ho ya "tum", shaayad khudrat ki andekhi anzuni nishaan ho

khoj jaari hai |

 

 Khayal

Itna sannatta kyun hai, baton ke beech itni tanhayi kyun hai
Darmiyan bad si gayi hai kyun
alfaz zuban se nikalte hein, par gum hojate hein kaanon tak aate aate
Itni gahrayi kyun hai teri aankhon mein, 
mein khud gum hu us neele bavar mein
Andhar jhakne se dar lagta hai
kahi kho na jaye mera wajood, aur doob na jaye ye chaman
Sunne  ki ek koshish hai, dekhne ki ek chahat hai
par dishayen palat si gayi hai, mahol gam geen hai
Mein jaise paraya hun, jaise ek parayi duniya mein phadpadata parinda
Uncha udne ki ek koshish hai, jaha is jahan ka rooh mile, waha jane ki ek kashish hai
Shikar par bhi wohi sannatta, wohi tanhayi
sabaze upar, sabze uncha, khayal aur apna makam phir bhi wahi tanhayi hai wahi becheyni
Shayad, galat ye nahi galat woh nahi, main hi behra dha main hi andha dha
Isiliye wohi sannatta hai,wohi tanhayi hai...

 Rooh Ki Awaaz

Gulabee chatri ke neeche, hariyali bistar pe leita hun, apne naye mile rooh ke sath..
Rangeen zamana hai charon aur, tham see gayi is vakt mein, mein simat rahan hoon naye mile yadon ke saath..
Nayab hai har vakt ki kashmakash, kahin pe shiqayat hai kahi pe pyar bare nagme..
Mushqil me hein ek nanhi jaan, utavla zamane ko parakhne keliye, parhez iske banavti rivazon se..
Barkhurdhar, date raho us gol-diwari kile mein, ladna hei bahar, badna hai bahar..
Ek lamhe mein hein kitne kahaniyan, aank jhapakte bante-bigadte mamooli-zordar afzane..
Mein bhi bun rahan hu ek apni kahani, tayyar hai naye tarane, mere apne dostane..
