Zahida Zaidi
dekho pardon ko achchhi tarah khinch duur
aur sab khidkiyan band kar do
aur us band kamre se bahar niklo
us men bosida sofon pe ik mota kapda chadha kar
tum ne un ko is andaz se rakh diya hai
ki ab daaen kone men
ukhdi safedi pe silan ke dhabbe
kam-o-besh nazron se poshida hain
aur baaen taraf
tuute dibbon
purane khaton
zang-alud tuuti paleton
aur bosida pinjron ke ik dher ko
tum ne ik lambi chaudi si chadar se
achchhi tarah dhak diya hai
aur ab baaqi kamra
bada saf-suthra nazar aa raha hai
dekho tuuti hui carnas ko bhi
ik shokh kapde se dhak kar
us par vo zar-shamen jala do
ki jin ki sisakti hui raushni men
tumhare khad-o-khal maalum hote hain mauzun
aur kone men rakhe hue
chhote recordplayer par hava disk rakh do
ki jis men purani si ek lai men
bas chand lafzon ki takrar hai
dekho us band kamre se bahar na niklo
kabhi bhuul kar bhi
barabar ke kamre men hargiz na jaao
kyuun ki vo sal-ha-sal se band hai
ye bhi mumkin hai
zahrile kide-makode vahan pal rahe hon
ye bhi mumkin hai
ab tak vo bhuton ka ghar ban chuka hai
dekho us band kamre se bahar na niklo
kyuun ki mumkin hai ab tak
vo zakhmi barahna band
baagh ke ek goshe men dam todte hon
haan agar ho sake to kisi se kaho
un ke khun-gashta jismon pe
zartar lafzon ki poshak dhak kar
un ko bahar padi kursiyon par bitha de
ta ki us raah se koi guzre
to kah de ki sab thiik hai
tum magar phir bhi sab khidkiyan band rakho
aur pardon ko achchhi tarah khinch do
aur us band kamre se bahar na niklo
dekho us band kamre se bahar na niklo
