Abbas Athar
yahan horn bajane ki ijazat nahin
aur main ne tamanna ka bharam khol diya hai ki samundar ki hava
siine se takrae to parda na rahe
us ki mahak sar pe kafan bandh ke nikli hai
har ik raste har mod pe avaz lagati hai
magar koi nahin rukta basant aai hai
sab bhaag rahe hain koi avaz nahin deta
koi mud ke nahin dekhta
petrol lahu aur hava dast-o-gareban hain
jidhar dekho patangen hi patangen hain
zaminon pe utarne ke liye dolti par taulti
bal khati hui
subah ko katti hain magar shaam ko sadkon pe utarti hain
to vo kaun hai jo
ankhon ke saae se gurezan hain
magar sub.h hi sub.h chupke se sau sidhiyan
chadh jaata hai thakta hi nahin
aur nai aag dahakti hai
nae range hue kaghazon se hashr chamak uthta hai
sab aurten aur mard javan ladkiyan aur ladke
nai texiyan aur motaren aur rikshe
unhen lutne nikle hain basant aai hai
aa jaao yahan luut machi hai aao
dar-o-divar ko hasrat ki nazar dekhna mat bhulna
ik dusre ko raundte
ik dusre ko khuun men bhige hue
sar pitte aur chikhte chillate sabhi bhaag rahe hain
koi avaz nahin deta
yahan maaon aur bahnon se aur biviyon se
akhiri boson ki ijazat hai
magar horn bajane ki ijazat nahin
