Ek Paheli-Haasye Kavita

ek zamana tha
dil hamara bhi
machla karta tha
din raat khuwabon mein
khayalo mein koi rahta tha
tab shayar-e-ishq me
hum hi hum nazar aate the
ab na khushi rahi na gam
hum hansi ke karan khoj rahe hai
isse ab koi adbhuth khoj kahe
ya koi kahe isse aawishkar
shayar-e-ishq me
din raat kaise guzar jaate the
is rahsy ka parda fash karne me
koi kasar nahi chod rahe hai
shayad umr ka takaza tha
aur samay ki na koi fikar
tabhi yoindia pe ishq nahi to
shayar-e-dard me sahi
bhari dil aur nam aankho se
taakte ghante guzar dete the
dasvi me hindi ki pariksha me
chahe number kam aaye ho
shayari ko lafz kaha se aate hain
yeh bhi apne me ek rahasye hai
khud ki deewangi kahe
ya yaha ke logon ka apnaapan
lage rahsyo ka yeh pitara to
yuh hi bharta rahega…!!
meri is khoj me aap bhi bhagyedaar bane
apni bhi kuch ray pesh kare …
shayad isi ke tahat
yaha bhi mahafil jam jayegi
kuch khatti kuch meethi
kuch namkeen kuch teekhi
ek zabardast haasye kavita
yaha pe bhi ban jayegi.
