मेरी खामोशियों में भी फ़साना ढूँढ लेती है,
बड़ी शातिर है ये दुनिया बहाना ढूँढ लेती है,
हक़ीकत ज़िद किये बैठी है चकनाचूर करने को,
मगर हर आँख़ फिर सपना सुहाना ढूँढ लेती है,
ना चिड़िया की कमाई ना कारोबार है कोई,
वो केवल हौसले से आबुदाना ढूँढ लेती है,
समझ ना पाई दुनिया मस्लहत मंसूर की अब तक,
जो सूली पर भी हँसना मुस्कुराना ढूँढ लेती है,
उठाती है जो ख़तरा हर कदम पर डूब जाने का,
वही कोशिश समन्दर मे ख़ज़ाना ढूँढ लेती है,
जुनूं मन्ज़िल का राहों मे बचाता है भटकने से,
मेरी दीवानगी ख़ुद अपना ठिकाना ढूँढ लेती है!






hakikat muje chur kar chuki,
sapne ko hakikat kar nahi sakti;
raste me manzil mujse ruth gai,
diwangi mere kisi kaam na aayi;
Ab kaisi ummid karu aur kisse karu?
khud se karu ya khuda se karu?
Irony:: Duniya fir bhi ummid pe kayam hai!

All that I can see is:

Hey Jana,
Really sorry about that. It is in Hindi script. I’ll try to translate it for you sometime. But, I am afraid, it will lose its charm and beauty

waah waah……bahut hi gamgin shaayar hain yeh…..mohatarmaan jara gaur farmaiye……ab kuch free flow shaayari ho jaaye
paani bhi apna raasta dhoondh leti hai aur shikari bhi apna shikaar dhoondh lete hai,
par aadmi do roti ke chakkar mein jindagi dhoondh nahin paata hai
waah waah…..

Well, I just couldn’t disect “मस्लहत मंसूर” and hence, couldn’t identify the right meaning of that couplet. Otherwise, the rest of the whole is simply a piece of luster. I mean, whoever is the respectable author of this great ghazal has combined the radiance of life’s instances with his own brilliancy and watta piece of intensity created…. Too good!
Here’s one on the sadder side for guys who’ld like to check… I had written it in a phase of life which was just not ready to pass and leave!
