PHIR BARSAAT CHALI AAYI

आज फिर भीगने का दिल करता है बरसात में,
कुछ शोख़ हवा चली है सुहानी रात में I

यादों की बूंदे दिल के आँगन में गिर रही हैं,
और दस्तक दे रही हैं देहलीज़-ऐ-जज़्बात पे I

मेरे रूखे जहान पे सावन को भी तरस आ गया,
लगता है रो रहा है वह भी मेरे हालात पे I

घने धुएं में रौशनी की किरण जगमगाई है,
कुछ और लौ बची है शमा-ए-हयात में I

सावन क्या आया, बस यूँ लगता है,
हल चल सी मच गयी है कायनात में I

हवाएं उनकी बज़्म से लायी हैं खुशबू,
उधर उठ के देखता हूँ बात बात पे I

सोचता हूँ, रवि, यह कहीं सरआब तो नहीं,
कुछ हकीकत तो होगी ख्याल-ए-करामात में I

Aaj phir bheegne ka dil karta hai barsaat mein,
Kuchh shokh hawa chali hai suhaani raat mein.

Yaadon ki boonde dil ke aangan mein gir rahi hain,
Aur dastak de rahi hain dehleez-e-jazbaat pe.

Mere rookhe jahan pe sawan ko bhi taras aa gaya,
Lagta hai ro raha hai woh bhi mere halaat pe

Ghane dhuyen mein raushni ki kiran jagmagaayi hai,
Kuchh aur lau bachi hai shama-e-hayat mein.

Sawan kya aaya, bas youn lagata hai,
Hulchul si mach gayi hai kainaat main.

Hawaayen unaki bazm se laayi hain khushbu,
Udhar uthh ke dekhta hoon baat baat pe.

Sochata hoon, Ravi, yeh kahin saraab to nahin,
Kuchh haqeeqat to hogi khayaal-e-karamaat mein.

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.
