Barish

tu aafaq se qatra qatra girti hai

sannaTe ke zine se

is dharti ke sine mein

tu tariKH ke aiwanon mein dar aati hai

aur baha le jati hai

jazbon aur imanon ko

maile dastar-KHwanon ko

tu jab banjar dharti ke mathe ko bosa deti hai

kitni soi aankhen karwaT leti hain

tu aati hai

aur teri aamad ke nam se

pyase bartan bhar jate hain

tere hath baDhe aate hain

gadli ninden le jate hain

teri lambi poron se

dilon mein girhen khul jati hain

kali raaten dhul jati hain

tu aati hai

pagal aawazon ka kichaD

saDkon par uDne lagta hai

tu aati hai

aur uDa le jati hai

KHamoshi ke KHemon ko

aur honTon ki shaKHon par

moti Dolne lagte hain

panchhi bolne lagte hain

tu jab band kiwaDon mein aur dilon par dastak deti hai

sari baaten kah jaane ko ji karta hai

tere sath hi

bah jaane ko ji karta hai
