kis ko maluum thaa

kis ko m`aluum thaa..

yuuN hi chalte huve, raastoN meN ka`ii hamsafar jo milay
aur biChhaRte gaye

aate jaate huve mausamoN ki taraH
aap hii apni gard-e-safar ho gaye
nah kabhi maiN ne phir muR ke dekhaa unheN aur nah sochaa kabhii
woh kahaaN kho gaye
jo gaye, so gaye

phir ye kaise huvaa
yuuN hi ik ajnabi, dekhte dekhte
dil meN utraa, nazar meN samaataa gayaa
aur dhanak raNg jazbe jagaa saa gayaa
jaise baadal ko`ii, be-iraadah yuuN hi,meri Chhat pe rukaa
aur barse binaa uss pe Thehraa rahaa
kyaa tamaashaa huvaa, saamne thii nadii aur ko`ii tashna-lab
uss ko taktaa gayaa aur pyaasaa rahaa
eik lamHe meN simTegi ye daastaaN
kis ko m`aluum thaa..

..kis ko m`aluum thaa
tum milogay mujhe is tarah be-gumaaN
