Lambi kaali raat

Woh kahkahoN ki Masti
KahaN gayee woh hasti?
Woh khwaaboN pay jaadu karna
Aur yaqeeN main badalanaa
Sabaa say sur milanaa
Tau kabhi taaroN say gungunanaa

Jab hosh nay aaNk kholi
Afkaar say ki macholi
Ab tu bhi udaas kyuoN hai
Tanhai ka paas kyuoN hai

Maanaa shub nay ziNdgi pay teri
Lagaai lambi pheri
Magar raushni kay woh daany
Jiskay tujh main haiN khazaanay
Bo day is kaali raat kay seenay par

--------------------

Hadd-e-fikr say aagay

Swaal haiN jwaab haiN
Khwaab khwaab khwaab haiN
Halaal na haraam hai
Afqaar kay saraab haiN

Hyaat la-jwaab hai
Aur sabko na-gwaar hai
Hyaat la-hadood hai
Par rooh girftaar hai

Hyaat khud maqaam hai
Aur aadmi khwaar hai

Khwaab bhi yaqeen haiN
Yaqeen bhi to khwaab haiN
Swaal haiN jwaab haiN
Khwaab khwaab khwaab haiN

Ik mauj-e-samndar-e-kaynaat hai zindagi
Khud hi jawaab aur swaalaat hai zindagi

Khud ki talaash yeh safar-e-hyaat
Abhi din ki aarzu ab justju-e- raat

Kuch jaani anjaani raahon pay
UmroN kay qaafilay
Ghardish-e-doraaN main pinha manzilaiN
Kabhi manzil ka pa laina
Phir us say ukta jaanaa
Yeh shauq-e-manzil nahi
Shayud jeenay ka bus bahaanaa

Jab bar gayi bahut tanhai
Banaya phulsupha-e-khudai
But banayay banai azaanaiN
Phir sajaai rishton ki dukaanaiN

Jab jab bhi khud say uktaiya insaaN
Daur-e-wehshat main laut aayaa insaaN

Is hajoom-e-zindagi main tanha hai har koi
Bus girafat-e-khwaab-e-bahaanaa hai har koi

Ik bhatkan umr kay jaNgloN main
Liyay bekasi-e-namaloom diloN main
Har koi jiyay jaataa hai
Dard-o-masarrat kay ajab saNgam ko
Unwaan-e-zindgai diyay jaataa hai

Nietzsche

Siyaah hai raat bahut sar chupayay baitha hai mahtaab kahiN aasmaanoN main
Woh door door tak haiN afsurda-nasheeN sitaaroN kay lashkar
KahkashaN Saari sharmsaar si huee firti hai


Woh pashymaN sa khra hai Tamm_dun ki na-deeda aankhoN ka swaal
KhwaaboN pay jhapat rahay haiN samaajoN kay uqaab
Hyaat roti hai zaar zaar
Taareekh junooN ka sung liyay hawaaoN ko soongha karti hai
Phir say hai raunaq-e-jashn ujray huay zehanoN main
Aaj phir qatl hua hai ik bedaar insaaN


Woh khaloos-o-ikhlaaq ka rasiya
Woh aashiq khird ki baharoN ka
Mar raha hai who luta kay aab-i-zeesat apna
Aur kehkehay lagaataa hai kargas raigzaaroN ka

Sadaaqat phir marsiakhwa hai aaj
Qaaynaat phir say Siyaah hai aaj
