The blank page

Kyu shehro me wo gaanv ki hawa nahi aati, Wafa k kisse sunne se hi wafa nahi aati.. Dil me mithas aur lab pe lehza chahiye, Yoon hi har kisi ko urdu zubaan nahi aati.. Khud se sawal bohot kiye akele me baith kar, Kyu duniya k samne batein bayaan nahi aati.. Be-waqt mil jata hai kisiko tohfa jannat ka, Intezar me hai hum, kyu mout ki saza nahi aati.. Haqiqat se jo muh mod ke chala karte hai.. Dhal bhi jaye raat to unki subah nahi aati..!!

Kuch khwahishe meri zameen se hai, asmaan kya karu.. Main khuli kitaab ke panno sa, tujhe hairaan kya karu.. Badal liye tumne raste, har mod pe is safar ke.. Dhool udi aur mit gaye, tere nishaan kya karu.. Sambhal ke rakhe hai maine, ab tak ek kone me.. Kuch besh-kimati se bache, tere samaan kya karu.. Hua krte the shumar, mere ajeez logo me tum bhi.. Ab badle se lagte ho, aa gya gumaan kya karu.. Zamane ki fikr chhod kbhi, khud ki awaaz to suno.. RiwayatoN ne jo badli, tumhari zubaan kya karu..!!

Main hoon tum ho aur batein yahi hai, Fursat bhi ho to milne wo aate nahi hai.. Mukhtasar rakhna hai khud ko bundo se hamesha lekin, Jee karta hai bheeg jau barsatein yahi hai.. Khyal achha hai kahi bhatak jane kaa, Hum roshni se mehroom hai aur ratein yahi hai.. Ab kise mile jannat aur kise dozakh mile, Hum bhi yahi hai aur jamatein yahi hai.. Kuch badla to nahi aur pehle jaisa bhi nahi.. Sab sochte hai hamare khayalatien yahi hai..!!

Kuch arse tak raha gaon ye sunsaan hi sahi, Ab rehte hai yaha kuch ajnabi mehmaan hi sahi.. Tooti hai diwarein lekin neev gehri bohot hai, Mere hisse aaya ye purana makaan hi sahi.. Dil aur chehre pe ek hi baat rakhe rehta hoon, Humpe laga hai kaise dekho ye ilzaam hi sahi.. Zyada to nahi lekin sahara meri raton ka hai, Uske gulab ko sambhale wo ik guldaan hi sahi.. Mehfil mein rehta hoon khushnuma har peher lekin.. Har shaam milta hoon khud se  pareshan hi sahi..!!
