Kashmakash

Zindagi hai kya, yh aaj bhi mai dhundh hi raha hu Maut me hai waqt, kya bas isliye hi jee raha hu Kya hai mera maqsad, yh kaun log sath me hain Ek pal ki khushiyaan, agle pal mai aansu pee raha hun Kuchh galat khatak raha hai, kuchh kami si reh rahi hai Kuchh toh hai tilasm, darasal me jo hai hi nahi hai Raat mujhse keh rahi hai, neend tuihko laazmi hai Din kahe tu daud, daud bhag me har aadmi hai Kaise jiyu mai aisi kashmakash ke sath me Dikhte sawaal mujhe meri har ik baat me Beetein hain saal kitne, aur kitne kaatne hain Kya yh khushi hai meri, ya mujhe malaal hai Kaise jiyu mai aisi kashmakash ke sath me Jitne bhi murde dekhe, sabke khali haanth the Fir kyu mai daudta hu, bheed ke behkaawe me Jaana kaha hai mujhe sath inke bhaag ke Jis gali gaya mai, us gali se pyar kar liya Haan jisne jo bhi bola sabka aitbaar kar liya Jo mil gaya sukoon se, uski qadr na mai kar saka Jo tha ni qismato me uska, intezar kar liya Fir intezar me yh sari zindagi guzaar di Kuchh khwahisho me waari, aadhi koshisho pe war di Aur koshishe bhi woh ki jinka azr kya pata nahi Kamaya maine yun toh bohot, khair kuchh bacha nahi. Mai kya bachata, jana kya tha, sath me kafan bacha tha Jebh bhi nhi thi usme, 8 ft ka ghr mera tha Sun raha tha logo ka mai shor, roye ja rahe the Kuchh the unme se jo meri nekiyaan gina gina rahe the Keh rahe the, bohot hi qareeb the ik dusre se Yh janaab, wohi the jo haal bhi ni puchhe the Fir kisine zor se jo cheekha, aankhe khul gayi Tha din naya, par sab wohi, wohi talaash-e-zindagi Beba
