seher

sardiyon ki ek seher mein samaa kuchh aisa tha
nigaahein khuli hamari to nazaara kuchh aisa tha
suraj ki kiran jharokhon par muskura rahi thi
neend ka aankhon se bahaana kuchh aisa tha

os ki boondein kaliyon par roshan thi
pedon ki shaakhon par koyal ka thikaana tha
nanhi cheentiyaan nikal chuki thi kaam par
mehnat ka paath jo unko padhaana tha

subah ke aath baje bhi ham khwaabon mein the
razaai mein lipte the kinaare sirhaana tha
aankhein band kar kiya dil se shukriyaa
ye khoobsurat seher khuda ka nazraana tha....
