Ek kavita

hai koi to pahaloo andheraa
ki jiskii tah mein hai koi to cheharaa

chalanaa hai aankh moond kar
varanaa kyaa vakt hai kabhii theharaa

saaye saa ubharta hai vo
tanhaa dekhate hi lagtaa hai pahara

jubaan uskii hi to bolte hain
jadon mein bas gayaa hai jo gahra

roshani karte hain saayon pe baar baar
ughaadte hain din-raat , ke hai koi saberaa!

Kal Raat

Mujhko meri rehandili ne sataya,
Kal raat ko main kuch likh na paya;
Dheemi- aahistha shaam dhal rahi thi;
mere saamne ek shama jal rahi thi!

Tabhi phir wahan ek parwana aaya,

Kal raat ko main kuch likh na paya;

Patanga koi ek geet gaa raha tha,

Shamma ke irda - girda mandra raha tha!

Kabhi saath aisa kisi ne nibhaya,
Kal raat ko main kuch likh na paya;
Jindagi se jaane kyon rushtha tha woh,
Iraade ka pakka bada dustha tha woh!

Uska woh dridha pradh mujhe bahut bhaya,
Kal raat ko main kuch likh na paya!

Kya sambhav hai?

चाहत
इक मधुर एहसास
पाने की नही
मुक्ति की प्यास

स्वयं को सुनाई देता
मौन स्पंदन
सीमाओं में बँधा
मुक्त बंधन

क्या संभव है शब्दों में
प्रेम समेट पाना

क्या संभव है प्रेम को
भाषा में व्यक्त कर पाना

क्या संभव है अभिव्यक्ति को
सही शब्द दे पाना

क्या संभव है
चाहत के विस्त्रत आकाश को
शब्दों में बाँध पाना?

Kuch lines wing ki junta ke naam!

khul gayi hai purani diary,
aa gayi hai yaad kuch bhooli shayri,

ho gaye peele sabhi paane,
magar gandh ab tak suhani aaye ri

phool sookhey keh rhe, rotey hue,
yaad na dil se purani jaye ri,

jo banaya tha kabhi, apno ke liye,
dil wahi bhoola tarana gaye ri,

aankh se jaise samandar beh chala,
tan tadap ke keh rha haay ri,

khul gayi hai purani diary,
aa gayi hai yaad kuch bhooli shayri!

door nahin!

Main ghoom raha tha aawara akela,
raat shahar ki galiyon me,
jaise pagal bhanwara dar dar bhatke,
band kamal ki kaliyon pe,
man ki aakulta pag me bhar,
main chalta jata idhar udhar,
lagta tha jisko main dhoondh raha,
voh kahi paas hi hai, door nahi.

yeh hamari fitrat ka hi asar,
ki chandni bhi tan ko jalane lagi,
chalo ab chand taro ko bhi bigaadein,
rituein hamse ab muh churane lagi,
lagta tha jisko main dhoondh raha,
voh kahin paas hi hai, door nahi.

sapne

Tere mere, shaam savere,
kahi unjaale ,kahi andhere


man mera, dhalta suraj
gehre badal, julfein teri

main ekaki, tu bhi tanha
yaadon main aa sathi mere


khuli aankh se sapna jaisa,
teri aankh main aanshu mere

duniyaa jalim, sukhe upwan
door basayein , apana chaman

kya jaadu hai, main na jaanu
needien meri ,sapne tere

Main nahin hun!

Main ghazal hun,
Padhe koi
meri kismat,
gadhey koi

Main safar hun,
Chale koi
main akela,
miley koi

Main andhera hun,
jale koi
main chandan
maley koi

Main nahin hun,
Kahe koi!
