Samasya

Tha kharha main morh par
Ek gehri kashmakash mein
Do rahein thi mere samksh
Aur meri manzil thi wahin kahin pe

Tab mili woh mujhe
Jisko dekh main chup ruk sa gya
Aur rah ke sabhi morh
Morh kar uski or barhne laga

Fir aawazz chooti...

ek tara dekh kar
tu yun taktaka kyon kharha hai?

husn ke is zulm mein
tu bhatakta kyon fira hai?

thi alag toh soch teri
toh aaj ghayal kyon parha hai?

chorha tha aanchal tune uska
toh aaj haath barhaye kyon kharah hai?

kyon kharha hai yun mukh par
aaj fir kisi ka naam leke?

kyun guma hai tu ishq mein
fir kisi ka khwaab dekh ke?

kyun parha hai tu zamin par
aaj fir kisi ka dil jeetne

bhul gya zakhm woh
jo aj tak bhar na saka hai?

bhul gaya aah woh
jiski karah se goonj aaj tak tu rha hai?

bhul gaya woh pyaas apni
jo sada adhuri hi rhi?

bhul gya kya woh aas apni
jo kabhi puri na hui?

uth, kharh aur aage barh
jeevan muk tuk na parha hai

jaa dekh apni manzil ko rahi
aaj path seedha parha hai

mat bhatak aaj rah se
aaj gantavya svayam kharha

chorh moh aur maya ka bandhan
aaj din tera charha hai



par main wahan chup rha
aur main whan muk rha
soch na paya bol na paya
kuch karna tha woh kar na paya

dekha ek disha toh dikhe
pichli galtiyon ke dukh anek
dekha duji taraf toh paya
manzilon ka dher anek

par dekh andar main sehem gya
chehra uska tha wahan khila
dekh us chehre ko mera
mukh bhi sehej muska gya

thi raunak woh jo kabhi na payi
thi hasin aise jo na kabhi khil khilayee
the khwab hasin jo na kabhi dekhe the
the raaste anek jo kaafi tedhe the

par raaston ke ant mein
dekha ujala sa bhara tha
jisey dekh aankhen band ho gayin
aur saamne ka dipak dhundla gya

fir suni aawaz woh
jo mujhe tarhpa rhi thi
fir suni salah woh
jo mujhe samjha rahi thi

par suni fir aawaz uski
aur mera man behel gya
bhul bandhan bhul dikkat
bhul sab dukh samasya main gya

aur wahin dusri aawaz
atyaadhik feeki kamzor parhi
aur mere pag swayam se
uski aur barhne lage

dekh barhta usney kaha
ruk ja murkh sehem ja
saamne hai rah teri
yeh nahin marg tera

bola main tujhe dekh kar
hi toh main sab chorh chaarh aaya hun
bola main ai phoolon ki kali
tujhe paane ki aas main laya hun

yeh sun woh murjha si gayi
jaise chand chup sa gya
dekh mani hairan hua
aur wahin par theher gya

naa jaanti thi main
ki andha tujhe main karungi
jaanti hoti toh shayad
chorh aati tej wahin pe

yeh sun main chakraya
darr sa gya, fir himmat se kadam barhaya
ai chandini, ai mrignayinee
kya nahin dekh paya main?

veh boli

saamne toh dekh rahi
rah teri seedhi parhi hai
toh bhatak tu kyon rha hai
marg ke beechon beech mein

gantavya toh sabka vahi hai
jo dekh tu aaj behka gya hai
par rah toh alag hai
kyon chala hai khudkhushi karne?

aaj jo tu yahan kharah hai
aaj jo tu kuch ban parha hai
woh is rah ki hi toh den hai
woh is rah ka tere liye prem hai

rah nahin hai dushman teri
nai le jayegi aisi jagah
jahan tu pahunch kahe
oof yeh toh choot hi gya

yun kaha aur tej halka kiya
toh aankhen fir khuli si
dekha rah ke ant mein tha wahi ujala
uski meri rah thi mano ek parhi

aur fir main samajh gya
meri rah toh seedhi hi parhi thi
par aankhon ke dhokhe ne
ghuma diya tha is dimag ko

jo mujhe lga ki ant tha
woh toh keval parhav tha
jo mujhe laga dhundhla deepak
woh toh bas uskey tej ka ek ant tha

manzil toh meri vahi thi
par raast bhi vahi tha
chunki tej halka hone par dekha
saamne geheri khayi thi

aur yeh jaan ke main muskuraye
vah bhi halki si sharmayi
boli ab chalo pathik
abhi baari nahin hai hamari aayi

par haan main tumhare saath chalungi
par thorhi duur is taraf
kyonki jo yeh tej hai
yeh bhi toh tumhara hi hai

aur ab main prafullit ho gya
maano amrit pee hi liya ho
saaman bandha, lakshhya saadha
aur uski roshni ki rah mein
barhta gya
