Ghazal

 

Ro rahaa hoon main , dekhtaa bhi nahee sarkaari afsar ,

Record mein kaise aayenge aansoo , sookh jaane ke baad .

 

Kyaa pahchaan aur behtar , ho nahi sakti ?

Jugnu pahchaane jaate hain shaam dhal jaane ke baad.

 

Aapko haq jataane se kisne rokaa hai sarkaar ,

Tax le lijiye magar kuchh wade nibhaane ke baad .

 

Kitnaa mushqeel aur mehnat hai izhaar mein ,

Papa ki photo har baar dekhtaa hu magar call kat jaane ke baad.

 

Hum musaafir nayaa raasta chunane se kyun rokenge ,

Beshaq ! Chale jaaiye , bas ik baar gale lagaane ke baad .

 

Koshishein kahaan jaanti hain bhed-bhaav kaa mathematics ,

Har baar usee tarah kiyaa nayaa ishq , puraane ke baad .

 

Ye gareebi taakne bhi nahee deti hain panne ,

Bachche aaj bhi khojte hain kaam , kitaabein aane ke baad .

 

Modern Love ka funda humein bhi samjhaaein Huzur !

Hum ab bhi dost hain ? itnaa waqt saath beetaane ke baad ?

 

Aapki taareefo kaa achaar lagaate thak gaye hum ,

Hum aapko yaad aate hain , laut aane ke baad.

 

Tum iss tarah vote maangoge to sach mein ro dungaa ,

Nahee ! ghaav nahi sookhte , khoon rukk jaane ke baad.

 

Muaavaze ki rakam theek samay par ghar aai thi ,

Magar ginta kaise koi , haath kat jaane ke baad .

 

Duniyaa ghoomti hai gol , chalti hai kismat ki lakeer par ,

Yee aap ab bataa rahe hain ? hunar dikhaane ke baad ?

 

Iss shaam ko harr oz bulaataa hai meraa intezaar ,

Magar chaand ko ab ghar jaanaa hai , pooraa dikh jaane ke baad.

 

Iss likhaawat mein galti se bhi jhaaknaa mat roti ,

Taaliyon ke liye chillaanaa padtaa hai , gazhal sunaane ke baad.

 

Har kisi ke ghar mein chaarpaai aur chulhaa hi hai dost ,

Aakhir kitni Roshni ho jaaegi , sabke gharo ko jalaane ke baad.

 

Pool giraane mein waqt – paisaa barbaad karnaa hai bewakoofi ,

Bread giraa dee jaayengi aasmaan se , baadh aa jaane ke baad.

 

Ek din mein deewaaro kaa bann jaanaa hai Unnati ,

Imaarat sundar lagati hai , bastiyaan giraane ke baad.

 

Kyaa bataaoon ! Khoob chubhati hai logo ki hansee mujhe ,

Magar har koi ban jaataa hai putlaa , unse haath milaane ke baad.

 

Kaash ! sadak se pahle tum gaaon , pahle aa jaate ,

Jantaa maalaa phenk chuki hai , phool murjhaane ke baad.

Duniyaa, duniyaa , bas duniyaa kaa swaarath ,

Jeena bhi Naseeb hogaa Jannat mein , mar jaane ke baad .
