Rishte

Har baat bol kar bataana zaroori to nahin Rizwaan,

kabhi kabhi chup rehkar bhi haale dil bayaan hota hai..

Izhaar-e-mohabbat bhi har baar alag hoti hai

kai baar ye sab Nazron ka anumaan hota hai..

kai rishte bune jaate hain pehli hi nazar mein

kabhi-kabhi dil bahut jaldi baimaan hota hai..

Ye jaroori bhi nahin ke har rishta atoot ho

kuchh toot kar phir jud bhi jaate hain,

Ye baat bhi sach hai ke

bure waqt mein kaam aaye rishte par maan hota hai

Magar ek sawaal mere dil ko bahut pareshaan karta hai

ke rishte hum khud hi banaate hain aur khud hi todte hain

Phir kyun har rishta tootne par badnaam hota hai??

Yahi hota pyaar hai kya

Jaane kya mujhse ye zamaana chahta hai

Mere jism ko rooh se alag kar, use mitaana chahta hai

Wo nikli hai bheed dekho mujhe maarne ke liye 

Wo ek shaks kon hai us bheed mein akela

Wo unhen kuchh samjhaana chahta hai

Shayad wo mera yaar hai, mujhe bachana chahta hai

Mat roko unhen mere yaar, aane do, dekhta hun main bhi

ke kitna dum hai mere pyaar ki taakat mein

Bhagwaan shayad mujhe ab aazmaana chahta hai..

Ye log waise bhi hamen yahaan jeene nahin denge

Mar gaya to tum bhi aa jaana upar suna hai wahaan koi rok-tok nahin hai

isiliye shaayad rab hamen upar bulaana chahta hai

Ye kya hua magar ke ye bheed wahin tham gayi hai

Na koi shor hai, sab ki aankhon mein kuchh nameen si hai

wo mera yaar hai nikla mujhe chhodkar khuda se milne

Wo bhi aaj mujhe shayad haraana chahta hai

wo log ab ek doosre ko kaat rahen hain

Ye kya log hain rabba tune kya bana diya

Mere yaar ki laash ka bhi ye log batwaara chahte hain

koi use jalaana to koi dafnaana chahta hai..

Badlapur

Main guzra aaj phir teri gali se, aur kuchh tanha sa laga
shaayad ab wahaan tanhai rehti hai,
Mili kuchh mehak teri baaton ki bhi jo zinda hain wahaan,
magar aaj unmen ruswai si rehti hai..

Wo kachchi mitti ki deewaren jihne taap kar tera deedar hua karta tha
wo badal gayin maidan mein wahaan ek chaarpai si rehti hai...
Zara bhi magar nahin badla tere ghar ka wo aangan
teri tarah wahaan bhi bewafai si rehti hai,
Guzaari thi kai tanha raaten zahan tere intezaar mein roshni
aaj wahaan andheron ki ek razai rehti hai..
Ye sirf khayaal nahin hain ye mere dil ke tukde hain
aaj yahaan mere toote hue sapnon ka baazar bhi laga hai
Khiraddar aate hain aur jaate hain khaali haath
bhare baazaaar mein bhi meri dukaan karzaai si rehti hai
Tu hi bata de mujhe e maula ke ye dukaan kahaan chalegi
aaj tak jahaan bhi kholi wahaan udhaar badhta raha hai
mere asool badal de ya ye duniya badal de
Warna mujhe lagega ke tu sirf kitaabon mein chhupa hai
aur bahaar bas teri parchhai si rehti hai..

Backbiting

Tha akela hai akela aur akele jaana hai, 

phir bhi na jaane kyun log doosron ki baat karte hain?

था अकेला, है अकेला और अकेले जाना है,
फिर भी ना जाने क्यूँ लोग दूसरों की बात करते हैं?

Mind or Heart?

Diya usne bhi aaj suboot apni begunahi ka,
aaj tak jisko hum dushman samajhte rahe,
ye mera dil hi tha jo hamesha uska saath deta tha,
aur ek hum the ke deemag ki baat sunte rahe..!!

दिया उसने भी आज सुबूत अपनी बेगुनही का,
आज तक जिसको हम दुश्मन समझते रहे,
ये मेरा दिल ही था जो हमेशा उसका साथ देता था,
और एक हम थे के दीमाग की बात सुनते रहे..!!

Phir se ud chala

Baarishen, baarishon mein parindey, parindon ke baat karte hain
yun to bezubaan hain hamare liye magar kuch lukteyaat karte hain
samajh jaana chahta hun ke ye bolte kya hain
kya ye teri or meri baat karte hain...??

kabhi sochta hun pakdun inko, kabhi sochta hun yunhi udne do
ye udne se pehle mujhe kyun nazar-andaaz karte hain
khair chhodo ye parinde kya samjhenge hamen, hum insaan hain
hum khud ko khud hi nahin samajh paaye, to parindey kya mukaam rakhte hain..??

Answer from an old man to my lines:

Ye parindey hain, ye na saamaan aur na zubaan rakhte hain
ye panchhi wo hain jo bas ek hi zubaan rakhte hain
jo na kabhi badli hai, ye wo udaan rakhte hain
ye sab ek jhundd mein udte hain aur apno ka khayaal rakhte hain..

Aprichit

Tujhse aaj tak main aprichit hun zindagi, 

na tune mujhse kabhi baat ki aur na maine tujhe kabhi jaana.
