gulzar sampooran singh ki shayyiri

main apne ghar mein hi ajnabi ho gaya hun aa kar
mujhe yahan dekh kar meri ruuh dar gayi hai
seham ke sab aarzuen kono mein ja chhupi hain
laven bujha dii hai napane chehron ki, hasarton ne
ki shauq pehchanata hi nahin
muraaden dehaleez hi pe sar rakh ke mar gayi hain
main kis vatan ki talaash mein yun chala tha ghar se
ki apne ghar mein bhi ajnabi ho gaya hun aa kar

haath chhute bhi toh rishte nahin chhoda karte
waqt ki shakh se lamhen nahin todaa karte
jis ki aawaz mein silvat ho nigaahon mein shikan
aisi tasveer ke tukade nahin joda karte
shahad jeene ka mila karta hai thoda thoda
jaane waalon ke liye dil nahin toda karte
lag ke saahil se jo behta hai usse behane do
aise dariya ka kabhi rukh nahin moda karte
waqt ki shakh se lamhen nahin toda karte
jis ki awaaz mein silvat ho nigaahon mein shikan
aisi tasveer ke tukade nahin joda karte
shahad jeene ka mila karta hai thoda thoda
jaane waalon ke liye dil nahiin toda karte
lag ke saahil se jo behta hai usse behane do
aise dariya ka kabhi rukh nahin moda karte

ek parwaaz dikhaai di hai
teri awaaz sunaai di hai
jis ki aankhon mein kati thi sadiyan
ussne sadiyon ki judaai di hai
sirf ek safaah palat kar ussne
beeti baaton ki safaai di hai
phir vahin laut ke jaana hoga
yaar ne kaisi rihaai di hai
aag ne kya kya jalaaya hai shav par
kitani khus-rang dikhaai di hai

din kuch aise guzarta hai koi
jaise ehsaan utarta hai koi
aaiina dekh ke tasalli hui
ham ko iss ghar mein jaanta hai koi
pak gaya hai shazar pe phal shayad
phir se patthar uchhalta hai koi
phir nazar mein lahu ke chheente hain
tumko shayad mughalata hai koi
der se guunjaten hain sannate
jaise hamko pukarata hai koi
