gard-baad

bagula
khak-zada farsh uftada

hawa jarub karti hai to us ka jism dhalta hai
safar ki gardishen sauda-e-baatin muntashir sochen

hayule sa bagula
be-shabahat qais-zada

shahr ki galiyon mein chakraata hai
khud main chikhta pal mein kai qarnon ke bal khata hai

gard zard ka jhula
bagula

hijr-zada balki hijrat-zad
sahra se abhi basti mein aaya tha

dare sahme hue logon ki aankhen hashr-basta thin
abhi do-chaar galiyan tai na ho pain

kham-o-pech us ki rah mein aae
zarre kasmasae

jism ke aaza jhade
aahista aahista udan andoh mein badli

aur ab logon ke qadmon mein koi wamanda-gard
be-kinara fatada hai

farda ki dhun mein koi ho bas ek hayula hai
mere baatin mein jo kuchh pech khata hai

hayula ya bagula hai
main pani aur mitti se bahut darta hun

hijrat se guzarta hun
ubharta hun bikharta hun
