~ Mila … ~

~ Mila … ~

Hashiyah-e-tasawwurat se hawalah mera, fariyaadi mila,
Shokhiyon main lipti ‘Na’ ka main, humesha hi, aadi mila ..
***
Mil toh jayenge maayene, lafz koi bekaar nai farhangi main,
Na milun kabhi, samajh lena maayene mujhe, barbadi mila ..
***
Tukur-tukur dekhta hoon, khud ko hi aksar uske aaine main,
Do ankhen, ek naak, phir mujhe laqab kaise, ‘abaadi’ mila?
***
Malmal main dete hain lapet, lasani jo kuch ek sache aashiq,
Inteqal to’ maine bhi farmaya, mujhe kafan kyon, khadi mila?
***
Imtehaanon se gurezaan main nahin, kare ‘ainy’ shinaakht,
Marta kaash ki ye sunte hue, ‘Majnun mujhe, fauladi mila’!
******
