Mehwar

hamari aankhon mein jalne wale nuqush baqi hain
kan mausam ki garm aahaT se chaunk uThte hain

bhigi miTTi ka lams fan ko nikhaar deta hai
nursery ke purane gamlon mein parwarish ke tamam aadab

KHub sajte hain
hawa abhi tak hamare peDon ki sard shaKHon mein sarsaraati hai

honT hilte hain
aur gaek hamare wijdan ki shat aur athah lahron mein bah nikalta hai

hamari masum aatmaon ki jot dharti pe jagti hai
hamari mehwar pe ghumti hai

kya hua jo hamari duniya mein din ki nafrat
ya shab ka dhoka bhi hadisa hai hamare alfaz ka

na koi tariKH saaton ki
na koi wirsa na koi tahzib

sab ghalat hai
mufahamat ke tamam bandhan bikhar chuke hain

hamari aankhen hi dekhti hain
aur koi aawaz hamari tariKH ki hikayat se mawara hai

dimagh patthar uga rahe hain
