SAMANDAR..

Bheeni bheeni matti ki ye khushboo sukun jane kaisa dil me laayi hai,
Boondein kuch baris ki meri palkon pe bhi yun chhai hai..
Kadam kyun mere chahte unn raahon se aaj gujarna
Girte the thokar kha ke janha bachpan me aur sikha tha janha chalna..
Yun to gujre aksar inn raahon se fer ke muh apna,
Dekha tha janha bachpan me chhota sa ek sapna..
Fir kyun raahein aaj mujhe yanha khinch laayi hai..
Shayad.. Dil ko mere kuch yaadein yaad aayi hai....

Bar raha hun in raahon me.. dekhta khud ko khelta uss aangan me,
Thi banzar zameen jo barso se, pari kuch boondein aasman se aaj uss aangan me..
Dekhta hun khud ko aangan ke uss pani me khilkhilate,
The din kya wo bhi jab uss pani me hum the apni kashti bahate..
Kuch usi tarah aaj fir iss aangan me hai samandar bhara,
Par kashti nahi kagaz ki.. beh raha aaj isme yaadon ka ek toota ghara
Ki thi koshish mene door iss samandar se jane ki.. Par na jane kyun kuch leharein mujhe yanha baha laayi hai..
Shayad.. Dil ko mere kuch yaadein yaad aayi hai....

Har kadam ke saath manzar wo fir se aankhon ke samne ghum raha,
Par chahta hai dil kuch aur hi mera.. shayad isliye unko palkon pe behne se hai rok raha..
Ye yaadein jo kuch meethi si hawa ka jhonka baha laaya hai..
To behta ye samandar kadamon tale mere, zehar bhi sang laaya hai..
Dekha isi aangan me ek sapna.. Isi aangna me fir wo toota
Gairon se to tha khair shikwa.. par apno se bhi fir main rootha..
Jab ban gaye the faslein itne yanha.. to fir kyun hawa mujhe yanha ura laayi hai..
Shayad.. Dil ko mere kuch yaadein yaad aayi hai....

Thi jung ek wo meri apno se apne astitav ki khatir,
Jeeta sapno ko apne khud hi torkar, kab tak main aakhir ??
Chal hi pari aasiyaane me mere ahem ki wo aandhi..
Mit to chuka tha sab kuch pahle hi bas ek dor thi tootni baki..
Tha wo ahem mera.. ya uss ghutan ka tha ehsaas, suroor mera jeet gaya..
Tor ke dor wo kacchi, apno se door main apne raaston pe chal diya
Thi raahe jo alag meri.. fir kyun aaj wo unn bichhri raahon se mil aayi hai
Shayd.. Dil ko mere kuch yaadein yaad aayi hai...

Ab mili jo raahe nayi mujhe.. rasta uss aangan ka bhi badal gaya,
Pal pal waqt ke fer aise.. iss aangan ka wazood hi ab mit gaya
Thi hawale jinke matti is aangan ki.. chhor diya ab unhone bhi iska saath
Shayad soonepan me nikali cchikh hi thi mere aangan ki, jo khinch laayi mujhe yanha aaj
Boondein jo baris ki katra katra iss samandar ko bhigo rahi,
Deeware bhi iss ghar ki mere dekhte doobte uss aangan ko ro rahi..
Ubb gaya aangan bhi ab mera sunne ko apno ki pukaar,
Thak gaya takte takte raahe pyaar ki.. jaane kab aayegi yanha ab wo bahar..

Dard jo iss aangan ka mujhe yanha bula laaya hai,
Pyaara har pal har manzar wo.. fir se aankhon ke samne aaya hai..
Hai begaane se jo apne unko to bhool bhi jaun..
Par suni thi janha nani ki wo kahaniya uss aangan ko kaise bhulaun ??
Hui ghariya khatam intazaar ki ab iski, aam ka wo per yanha ugne ko fir tayaar hai,
Hun arsh pe aaj main.. par ahem mera uss samamdar ki khatir jhukne ko tayaar hai..
Hoga gulzaar ye aaj bhi.. hua iska ise bhi ab ehsaas hai..
Kyunki dil ke kisi kone me kanhi.. kisi ko kuch yaadein aaj bhi yaad hai.....
