chaDhta Suraj uDta Baadal Bahta Dariya Kuchh Bhi Nahin

Tanweer Gauhar

chaḌhta suraj uḌta badal bahta dariya kuchh bhi nahin

saara tamasha mere liye hai lekin mera kuchh bhi nahin

un ki nannhi ungli to ab computer se khele hai

aaj ke bachchon ki nazron men chanda-mama kuchh bhi nahin

mere pyase honTon hi se bas dariya ki qimat hai

tishna-labi ka muul hai saara varna dariya kuchh bhi nahin

us ne ham ko haldi kya di ham pansari ban baiThe

lene vaale malik Thahre dene vaala kuchh bhi nahin

tera mera karte karte umr guzari jaati hai

sach to ye hai tera mera mera tera kuchh bhi nahin

ham nazron nazron men apne dil ka sauda kar baiThe

socha-samjha kuchh bhi nahin aur dekha-bhala kuchh bhi nahin

in rishton ki bhiiḌ men akasr mujh ko aisa lagta hai

saari duniya apni sagi hai lekin apna kuchh bhi nahin

laakh karen ham sajda zamin par laakh jabin ko ghis Dalen

saaf na ho gar niyyat ‘gauhar’ to phir sajda kuchh bhi nahin
