MORE BYTanveer Anjum

    maiñ ne ek sāhil se ek siipī uThā.ī

    aur apne aañsū ko us meñ band kar ke

    duur gahre samundar meñ pheñk diyā

    maiñ ne apne hāthoñ par

    ik tez chhurī se

    lambe safar lakīr banā.ī

    aur aise juute ḳharīde

    jo chalte hue pairoñ ko hamesha zaḳhmī rakhte haiñ

    ab daf.a maiñ ne ghar banāyā hai

    aise shīshoñ

    jin meñ sirf andar aks rahtā hai

    aur aisī aag

    jo zarūrat paḌne par ḳhud jal uThtī hai

    aur aisī havā

    jis ke liye koī darvāza kholne zarūrat nahīñ

    aur aisī chīzoñ

    jo apnī apnī jagah par farsh se juḌī huī haiñ

    maiñ ne apne mausamoñ ko churā liyā hai

    aur ghaas ke maidānoñ ko

    registānoñ ko āsmānoñ ko

    maiñ ne ek titlī ko ek kitāb meñ chhupā liyā hai

    aur ik ḳhvāb ko āñkhoñ meñ

    aur mohabbat ko jānñe ke liye

    maiñ ne

    ek nazm paḌhī hai

    aur āvāz ke liye

    ik giit gaayā hai

    maiñ ne ghup añdhere meñ

    āñkheñ band kar ke

    ghar ke shīshoñ meñ

    ḳhud ko dekhā hai

    aur yaad kiyā hai

    ek aadmī ko

    jo gahre samundar meñ

    vo siipī DhūñDne utar gayā

    jis meñ maiñ ne apnā aañsū qaid kar ke pheñkā thā

    main ne ek sahil se ek sipi uThai

    aur apne aansu ko us mein band kar ke

    dur gahre samundar mein phenk diya

    main ne apne hathon par

    ek tez chhuri se

    lambe safar ki lakir banai

    aur aise jute KHaride

    jo chalte hue pairon ko hamesha zaKHmi rakhte hain

    ab ki dafa main ne ghar banaya hai

    aise shishon ka

    jin mein sirf andar ka aks rahta hai

    aur aisi aag ka

    jo zarurat paDne par KHud hi jal uThti hai

    aur aisi hawa ka

    jis ke liye koi darwaza kholne ki zarurat nahin

    aur aisi chizon ka

    jo apni apni jagah par farsh se juDi hui hain

    main ne apne mausamon ko chura liya hai

    aur ghas ke maidanon ko

    registanon ko aasmanon ko

    main ne ek titli ko ek kitab mein chhupa liya hai

    aur ek KHwab ko aankhon mein

    aur mohabbat ko jaanne ke liye

    main ne

    ek nazm paDhi hai

    aur aawaz ke liye

    ek git gaya hai

    main ne ghup andhere mein

    aankhen band kar ke

    ghar ke shishon mein

    KHud ko dekha hai

    aur yaad kiya hai

    ek aadmi ko

    jo gahre samundar mein

    wo sipi DhunDne utar gaya

    jis mein main ne apna aansu qaid kar ke phenka tha
