khaTkhaTaayaa gayaa hai dar itnaa — Avneesh Trivedi Abhay

shajar mahfuz aangan kaa rakho tum
parinde chahchahaanaa chaahte hain

ghar banaane mein 'umr lagti hai
ghar mein bante makaan dekhe hain

kaun rahtaa hai safar mein 'umr bhar
mustaqil koi Thikaanaa chaahiye

khiDki ke apni us ne bhi parde giraa liye
mere bhi raaste ki rukaavaT nahin rahi

tanhaaiyaan safar mein musalsal bani rahin
phir bhi tumhaaraa naam pukaare chale gae

mujhe bhi paDh liyaa hotaa sabhi ne
miraa lahja agar akhbaar hotaa
