Mere kutch sawaal...

Jee to raha hoon ye zindagi par jaise kutch malaal baaki hai,
zindagi ne to mujhe parakh liya, par mere kutch sawaal baaki hai

kyon har zakhm ki dava nahin, kyun use bhulaana mumkin nahi
gar kismat mein judaai hai, to kyun zehan mein uska khayal baaki hai?

naa hansta hoon dil se, naa hi aansoon nikal paate hian aankhon se,
khamosh siskiyon se bhare, aise kitne aur saal baaki hain?


kyun shikayat hai mujhe kisise, kyun ummeed kari thi kisise,
jhoothe rishton ke, khokhle vaadon ke kitne aur jaal baaki hai?

kyun jee raha hoon aise ki jaise koi ehsaan chuka raha hoon,
kitna karz utar gaya aur kitna hisaab filhaal baaki hai?

kyun vo dard dete hain jo dil ke bahut kareeb hote hain,
kabhi samajh paye to batayenge, 'majrooh' ke kayi maqaal baaki hain
