khoj

khoya hai maine jo
karna hai hasil woh,

hausle past hain
dikhe nai disha mujh ko.

khud ko bhulaya jo maine
to bhula jahan aaj mujh ko

pa kar sab kuch aakhir
khoya hai maine khud ko.

astitva ki khoj
fir se karni hai mujh ko,

jo khoya tha maine
woh pana hai fir se mujh ko.

jo ruthi hai khushiyan
lautana hai khud ko unko

bas is baar khushiyon ka naya matlab
samjhana hai ab mujhe khud ko.

Even This Will Pass Away

Once in Persia reigned a king, Who upon a signet ring, Carved a maxim strange and wise, When held before his eyes, Gave him counsel at a glance, Fit for every change and chance: Solemn words, and these were they: “EVEN THIS WILL PASS AWAY.” Trains of camel through the sand Brought him gems from Samarcand; Fleets of galleys over the seas Brought him pearls to rival these, But he counted little gain, Treasures of the mine or main; “What is wealth?” the king would say, “EVEN THIS WILL PASS AWAY.” Mid the pleasures of his court At the zenith of their sport, When the palms of all his guests Burned with clapping at his jests, Seated midst the figs and wine, Said the king, “Ah, friends of mine. Pleasure comes but not to stay, “EVEN THIS WILL PASS AWAY.” Woman, fairest ever seen Was the bride he crowned as queen, Pillowed on the marriage-bed Whispering to his soul, he said, “Though no monarch ever pressed Fairer bosom to his breast, Mortal flesh is only clay! “EVEN THIS WILL PASS AWAY.” Fighti

kyon karni hai khwahish kisi ka naam le kar jo khud pe hain yakin to chalo khud ko akela kar! khwahish jo kisi aur ke balboote pe bani ho, toot jaye woh to kyon aankhon mein nami ho? Raah mein milne wale to musafir hain, Kuch pal humsafar ban jaate hain, Jo badalti hain manzilein to, Raah mein akela chod jaate hain. Raahgiron ko apni manzil na batao, jo bani hai kuch yaadein, ho sake to unhe bhool jao!! yaadein jo banti hain sahara kisi ka pa kar toot-ta hai sahara to nikalti hain aankhon se beh kar to rakhna hai kyon khud ko mohtaaj kisi ka bana kar karni hai bandagi kisi ki to sirf bharosa karo khud par! tab bhi bikhrengi khwahishein, aur tootenge armaan, jo dekhoge peeche to milenge apne hi kadmon ke nishan! bharosa jo tum ko fir se dilayenge, kisi toote dil ki daastan na fir se douhrayenge! bharosa tootega nai, khud pe mazboot hoga khwahishon ke tootne pe hi, nai khwaishon ke janam ka josh hoga ! This is in repsonse to DreamCatcher's comment to previous post :-)

'kyon'

oonche aasmaan mein ghane badlon ke beech, udi chal jati kahin sochti hun akhiyan meench! 'kyon' udta hai man bhare badlon ke jaise, sachayi-numa pahadi se takra 'kyon' behta hai pani fir aankhon se? 'kyon' koi khwab aankhon mein aata hai, aakhir kaise koi chehra dil mein samata hai ? fir 'kyon' nam hoti hain kisi ki yaad mein aankhein, dil baar baar ro kar 'kyon' zaar zaar hota hai ? chahton ke dayere mein bandh kar 'kyon' insaan samajh apni khota hai, vastavikta samajh kar bhi 'kyon' paristhityon ke haathon majboor hota hai ? dard se jhoojh kar dard se hi shakti pa, fir bhi 'kyon', dard bhari yaadein sanjota hai? dard se hi rishta banata hai?
