Ayodhya! Main Aa Raha Hun

ayodhya! aa raha hun main

main teri kokh se janma

teri godi ka pala hun

teri sadiyon purani sanwli miTTi mein khela hun

mujhe malum hai tu mujh se ruThi hai

magar ab dur tujh se rah nahin sakta

parae desh mein guzri hai jo mujh par

wo KHud se bhi kabhi main kah nahin sakta

zara sar to uTha aur dekh

kitni dur se tujh ko manane aa raha hun main

tujhe tere hi kuchh qisse sunane aa raha hun main

ayodhya! jaanta hun teri miTTi mein udasi hai

na jaane kitni sadiyon se

meri bhi ruh pyasi hai

ki hum donon ki qismat mein KHushi to bas zara si hai

bahut din ho gae hain mujh ko tere aasman dekhe

sunahri dhup dekhe chamchamati kahkashan dekhe

teri galiyan tere bazar aur tere makan dekhe

wo din jo tujh mein raushan the wo barson se kahan dekhe

bichhaD kar tujh se jo manzar bhi dekhe raegan dekhe

magar han yaad aaya

ek manzar aur bhi mahfuz hai mujh mein

haweli ek chhoTi si aur us mein nim ke sae

ki jis mein aaj bhi zinda hain shayad mere man-jae

isi manzar ke pichhe aur bhi dhundle se manzar hain

purani gum-shuda tahzib ke ghar hain

jahan KHwabon ki duniya hain

jahan yaadon ke daftar hain

andhere ru-ba-ru mere

sitare mere andar hain

kahin radha kahin sita kahin byakul si mera hai

kahin par karbala hai aur kahin par ramlila hai

tera mera to an-ginat janmon ka qissa hai

ki mujh mein dur

sadiyon dur

gautam ab bhi zinda hai

hawa ruk ruk ke aati hai

jo gunji thin hazaron sal pahle

wo sadaen sath lati hai

mere andar jo mere rup hain

mujh ko dikhati hai

ayodhya! mein tere marghaT ka basi hun

mujhe tu jaanti hogi

mujhe malum hai mujh ko

mere har nam se pahchanti hogi

ujaD kar rah gaya jo main wo mela hun

bhara sansar hai phir bhi akela hun

teri miTTi se jaga hun

teri miTTi mein khela hun

teri miTTi ko pahna hai

teri miTTi ko oDha hai

bahut ji chahta hai ab teri miTTi mein kho jaun

kai sadiyon ka jaga hun

teri miTTi mein so jaun

ayodhya! mera bahar karbala hai

andarun mera kapilwastu hai, makka hai madina hai

mujhe tere purane aur raushan din mein jina hai

badan par hai tera baKHsha hua ye kesari bana

hai bhiksha patr hathon mein

safar mera hai ab tarik raaton mein

ayodhya! sar uTha

aur dekh le mujh ko

thake qadmon se ab teri hi jaanib aa raha hun main

safar tarik hai

pag pag pe Thokar kha raha hun main

mujhe aawaz de ghabra raha hun main

teri KHatir jo barson se chhupa rakkha hai dil mein

wo ujala la raha hun main

ayodhya!

aa raha hun main
