Subah

Aaj is subah
mein kya baat hai?

Kya hua hai
ki har cheez mein tumhara tassavur hai
Har shay mein tumhari yaad…

Woh panchi jo meri khidki
par apne doston ke saath khel raha hai
Usse tumhara koi rishta to nahin?

Woh suraj jo apni thandi dhoop se
mere ghar ko ujagar kar raha hai
Kya woh bhi tumhe jaanta hai?

Woh chote chote bache jo ab bhi
subah to raat samjhe baithe hain
Unse se tumhara kya vaasta?

Yeh subah mujhse kya keh rahi hai?
Kyun sard hawa mein tumhara ehsaas hai?
Kyun geeli mitti mein tumhare kadmon ki nishan hain?
Kyun lagta hai ki tum mujhe choo rahe ho?
Mujhe dekh rahe ho?
Mujhe mehsoos kar rahe ho?

Aakhir, aaj is subah
ko hua kya hai?
