KYA KAHUN?

आज कल कुछ कहने को जी नहीं करता,
तेज़ नदियों में बहने को जी नहीं करता I

बहुत झेल लिए ज़ालिम के ज़ुल्म ओ सितम,
और ग़म – ऐ – इश्क़ सहने को जी नहीं करता I

उनके तगाफुल में वीराने भी हसीन लगते थे,
अब तो जन्नत में भी रहने को जी नहीं करता I

जज़्बात के समुन्दर अभी भी उठते हैं मेरे दिल में,
पर अब उन मौजों में बहने को जी नहीं करता I

ख्यालों में उनसे मिल के गुफ़तगू करता रहा, रवि,
रूबरू आये तो कुछ कहने को जी नहीं करता I

Aaj kal kuchh kehne ko ji nahin karta,
Tez nadiyon mein behne ko ji nahin karta.

Bahut jhel liye zaalim ke zulm-o-sitam,
Aur gham-e-ishq sehne ko ji nahin karta.

Unake tagaful mein veeraane bhi haseen lagate the,
Ab to jannat mein bhi rehane ko ji nahin karta.

Jazbaat ke samundar abhi bhi uthhate hain mere dil mein,
Par ab un maujon mein behne ko ji nahin karta.

Khyaalon mein unase mil ke gufatagu karta raha, Ravi,
Rubaru aaye to kuchh kehne ko ji nahin karta.

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.
