khoj

main apna nam aur paidaish
khoj rahi hun

ek aisi khurdbin se
jis mein

pachchiswin sadi ki aankhen
lagi hui hain

wo aankhen jin ki putli safed
aur saklira siyah hai

wo aankhen jo dur tak
dekh sakti hain aur

aathwan rang pahchan sakti hain
jinhen baiswin sadi ne

daryaft karne ka dawa kiya tha
magar ye alamiya

jis ki kokh
waqt ke wajud se khali hai

meri paidaish ke lamhe ko
kisi calender mein

nishan-zad karne se qasir hai
shayad mera janm

tin sau sadsathwen din ke
kisi ghair-matbua lamhe mein hua tha

jise tashhir karte hue
khuda-e-asli

apni la-mahdudiat ki duhai deta raha
aur khiraj leta raha

magar phir
pluto ki sard aahen khamosh ho gain

surkh patthar wale
surkh pattharon mein chun diye gae

wajudiyat
pa-shikasta wajud se

ma-baad-wajudiyat ki
tawilen gadhti rahi

aur main
apni khoj ke patal mein

janmon ki kahani dohraate dohraate
nizam-e-shamsi ke daere se

bahar ja padi
be-kinariyat ke samundar mein

jahan har natija sifar hai
