PatjhaD Ka Mausam Tha Lekin ShaKH Pe Tanha Phul Khila Tha
patjhaD ka mausam tha lekin shaKH pe tanha phul khila tha
jis ko hum patthar samjhe the chashme jaisa phuT baha tha
ab to aankhen pap-bhari hain ek samay yaro aisa tha
agle ghar ki chhat ke pichhe chand bahut pyara lagta tha
nang-dhaDang ek nanha-munna pichhe pichhe dauD raha tha
aage uDne wale waqt ne pal-bhar ko muD kar dekha tha
phulon wale tarkash ke ek tir ne meri aankhen le lin
aur jis ne chilla khincha tha wo bhi ek andha laDka tha
ghar se niklo dhup mein baiTho dekho us pipal ka saya
jis ke niche tum aisa ek bhola bachcha khel raha tha
jo pagal aurat parson tak ek guDiya nocha karti thi
kal us ki jhilmil chunari mein ek maTiyala guDDa sa tha
yun to hari-bhari rahon mein roz naya mela lagta hai
jab main ghar se nikla ya to main tha ya mera saya tha
main samjha tha mere sar aur zaKHm ki nisbat pur-mani hai
aur koi tha jis ki KHatir bachchon ne patthar phenka tha
ashk' ek muddat tak gum-sum se peD ne rim-jhim barkha jheli
aag lagi to chingari ke chaaron-or dhuan phaila tha
