SHIQURDU 34

 

 

186

ख्वाब से अब जगने लगा हूँ

जिंदगी को बेहतर समझने लगा हूं।

लफ्ज़ों की अब जरूरत नहीं है,

चेहरों को मैं पढने लगा हूँ।

 

 

187

परखते रहते हो हर वक़्त ताक़त दवाओं की

कभी आजमा के देखो ताक़त दुआओं की

 

 

188

अच्छा है चुप रहना सीख।

लेकिन सच भी कहना सीख।

अगर सकूं से रहना है तो।

किसी के दिल में रहना सीख।

 

 

189

सबर कर, यकीन कर,

वक़्त ही तो है, गुजर जायेगा

हिम्मत कर, शुक्र कर

बिखरा भी सवर जायेगा

 

 

190

आसमां छूने की जिद थी मुझे

धुप थी या घटा, मुझे क्या पता

मुझको उड़ानों से था वास्ता

किस तरफ थी हवा, मुझे क्या पता

(Not true in Aviation world)

SHIQURDU 33

 

 

181

जो निभा दे साथ जितना

उस साथ का भी शुक्रिया

छोड दे जो बीच में

उस हाथ का भी शुक्रिया

 

182

इसी का नाम जिन्दगी है

कुछ थमें हुए तूफाँ, कुछ मदम सी बरसात

कुछ सुकून भरी यादें, कुछ दर्द भरे लम्हात

 

183

ख्वाब से अब जरा जगने लगा हूँ

जिंदगी को बेहतर समझने लगा हूं।

थक जाता हूं अक्सर अब शोर से,

खामोशियों से बातें करने लगा हूँ।

 

184

ऐ ज़िदगी

मैं इंसान हूँ पत्थर नहीं,

तू बेवजह सताया न कर,

जान माँग ले बस एक बार वो भी दे देंगे,

लेकिन बार बार मुझे तू आज़माया न कर

 

 

185

वक्त के सैलाब में जाने क्या-क्या बह गया।

अपनी-अपनी मंज़िलें हैं अपने-अपने रास्ते,

कोई आगे बढ़ गया, तो कोई पीछे रह गया,

कट गया कितना सफर और  कितना बाकी रह गया।
