Kalam ko syahi se

Panne ko hatheliyo se

Arthon ko shabdon se

Pyaar hai…

aur mujhko tumse.

Har baar jab tum muskurate ho
vo samajh nahi pate
jab tum kuch paa jate ho
apni jeet bata nahi pate

us pal ke liye,
tum uthkar jaa na sako
kyunki unki aan par ban ayegi
tum ziddi bhi ho
tumhari jaan par ban ayegi
...ek dabbu ki tarah muskurate ho
aur vo samjh nahi pate

khidki tumhi ne khuli chhodi thi
phir ghar ke chakkar kat.te kabootaron par
apni khabar ke mude akhbaar
kyun phirate ho?

yaadein na kuredo, khamosh...zuban ho jati hai,
halak mein panaah liye ghadi ka kaanta tik tik kare

waise to holi bhi mere rang se darti hai,

umang ke print waali shirt mujhpar khoob phabti hai,

tarang ke baadal par meri hasi garajti hai

aap sunayein kya haal chaal hain.

LAU

Parde aur khidki se bane jharonkhe se aage rakha diya apni raushni ghar ke angan tak pahunchane ki koshish karta hai. Patton ki hava mein khud ko batti se bandhe uski Lau dagmagati hai, bas charon or kuch chote tukdon ko raushan kar pati hai.

Diye ke liye itna hi bahut hai, ki apni pooch apne parivar mein to hai. 
Ghar ke bheetar ka bulb band ho jane par jab lau ki raushni dhere se bikharne lagti hai aur hum aksar khud se baat karna chahte hain, ek baar bhi nahin sochte ki us lau ki kitni mehnat, mashakkat hawaon se ladne mein hai, jo diye ko apne parivar ke chehron ko khush dekhne mein hoti hai.

Yahi us imandar diye ko sukoon deta hai.

Apne ast-vyast mahaul mein us diye ko itna samay, kuch choti si jagah bhi nahin de rahe, ki uska parivar badh  sake aur diya itna shaleen ki shikayat bhi nahin karta. Bas apni soch apne bachhon mein ubharne ki koshish karta hai jo bade hokar humare mann ko paar kar jayein.

Diye ka yah atmavishvas, uski lau ka tej, yoonhi baithke tak-taki lagaye rehne par humari ankhon mein chubhne lagta hai. Wah Lau hai jiski wajah se humari ankhon 
mei n jalan hoti hai. 

ye film ka parda nahin
mere dil ka roshandaan hai
us kirdaar ki chuppi nahin hai,
meri aatma ka sahaj vistaar hai,
jo ankhon se bayaan hota hai

"Exam ke wo panne kore na rakh chodhein,
is roomani andaaz ko beech mein na todein...ki..
agar ye dilchasp alfaz kalam tak pahunch jayenge
sawalon se aap jab Jawab-e-Ghalib ho jayenge
tab aap exam se bahar nikalkar pakke shaayar kehlayenge"

din din shukra manata hoon
ki har roz khatta dhai jamata hoon
mithaas pad gayi agar in haathon mein,
to shakkar ko shukriya kehna bhool jaunga.

tumne pyaar ki keemat samjhi nahin to meri nazar ko badnaam na karo...


ishq karke choodhna bhi ho to sare-aam na karo
