Na-rasai

hazaron patton par tum ko KHat likhe

ek ek jaan pahchan wale se

puchhta phira hun

jitne munh the utni baaten

jaane kaun ho?

tum ko jaanta nahin, pahchanta bahut hun

pata nahin kaun se KHwab mein

kis tarik lamhe mein

bechain be-nind raat ki kaun si karwaT mein

achanak raushni sa tum ko dekha tha

tab se tum se mohabbat ho gai hai

tumhaara pur-sukun bhar pur chehra

us par meri puri pakaD hai

tum ko pane ke pagal-pan mein

sari duniya ki tariKH jughrafiya

falsafe, samaji ulum

adab, shairi sare funun-e-latifa

sab kuchh jaan liya

tamam zamanon ki insani shaklen

tum se milata hun

taqdir ko likhe hue

aadmi ke sare mohabbat-name paDhta hun

shayad kahin tumhaara zikr ho

abhi abhi tum ko

kasi hui bhiD ke aaKHiri sire par

dekha hai achanak

rele par rela, dhakke par dhakka

kahin bhi koi shigaf nahin

insani jismon ki unchi diwar

tum tak kabhi bhi

pahunchne na degi
