HUSN WAALON KO NA DIL DENA

नींद में आती हो तो नींद हो जाती है दूर,
ख्वाब बन के उठते हैं और हो जाते हैं चूर.

आज तक भूला नहीं है तेरी नज़रों का सरूर,
मैं मदहोश अब भी हूँ, मेरा ही है यह जुनून ओ फितूर.

मुन्तजिर हूँ आज रात मेरे घर आना ज़रूर,
रोशनी के लिए काफी है तेरे चेहरे का नूर.

तेरे इश्क से पहले ना थे हम यूं मजबूर,
तेरे इश्क के बाद हुए हैं अब बेहद्द मश्हूर.

माना हमारा घुट घुट के मरना भी नहीं मन्जूर,
यहाँ हम सज्दे में हैं वहाँ तुम हो मग्रूर.

या खुदा समझ गए तेरी दुनिया का दस्तूर,
कत्ल वह करते गए, ये भी मेरा ही था कसूर.

Neend mein aati ho to neend ho jaati hai duur,
Khwaab ban ke uthate hain aur ho jaate hain chuur.

Aaj taq bhuula nahin hai teri nazaron ka saruur,
Main madhosh ab bhi hoon, mera hi hai yeh junoon o fitoor.

Muntazir hoon aaj raat mere ghar aana zaruur,
Raushni ke liye kaafi hai tere chehre ka noor.

Tere ishq se pehle naa the hum youn majbuur,
Tere ishq ke baad huye hain ab behadd mashhuur.

Maana hamaara ghut ghut ke marna bhi nahin manzuur,
Yahan ham sajde mein hain wahan tum ho maghruur.

Ya khuda samajh gaye teri duniyaa ka dastuur,
Qatl woh karte gaye, ye bhi mera hi tha kasuur.

I have done a long stint in the Indian Navy that lasted for nearly thirty seven years; I rose as far as my somewhat rebellious and irreverent nature allowed me to. On retirement, in Feb 2010, the first thing that occurred to me, and those around me, was that I Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (you will find an article with this title in this blog) and hadn't lost all my noodles and hence thought of a blog titled 'This 'n That'. I later realised that every third blog is called 'This 'n That' and changed the name to 'Sunbyanyname'. I detest treading the beaten track. This blog offers me to air 'another way' of looking at things. The idea is not just to entertain but also to bring about a change. Should you feel differently, you are free to leave your comments. You can leave comments even when you agree and want to share your own experience about the topic of the blog post. Impudent or otherwise, I have never been insousciant and I am always concerned about the betterment of community, nation and the world. I hope the visitors of this blog would be able to discern it.
