Meri Khamoshi:

Khamoshi se apni pehchaan banata hoon,
Shor machana meri aadat nahi…
Aaj log shayad mujhe nazar-andaaz kar dete hain,
Magar kal waqt khud ruk kar kahega —
“Yahi woh shakhs hai… jiska naam kabhi khamoshi me likha ja raha tha.”

Meri Khamoshi:

Arz kiya hai…

Khamoshi se apni pehchaan banata chalu,
Har din apne khwaabon ko sajata chalu.
Mujhe shor se kabhi mohabbat nahi rahi,
Isliye khud ko khamoshi me hi aazmata chalu.

Log aksar poochte hain itna chup kyun rehta hoon,
Har baat ka izhaar lafzon se zaroori to nahi.
Kuch jazbaat dil ki gehraiyon me hi ache lagte hain,
Har ehsaas ko duniya ko batana zaroori to nahi.

Aaj meri khamoshi ko log kamzori samajh baithe hain,
Meri saadgi ko meri majboori samajh baithe hain.
Magar unhe kya khabar ke waqt ki kitab me,
Meri kahani abhi likhi hi kahan gayi hai.

Main girta hoon, sambhalta hoon, phir chal padta hoon,
Har dard ko muskura kar seh leta hoon.
Mujhe pata hai manzil door nahi mere dost,
Bas isliye har roz ek naya hausla le leta hoon.

Waqt jab apna rang dikhata hai,
To khamosh log bhi misaal ban jaate hain.
Jo aaj meri taraf dekh kar muskura dete hain,
Kal wahi log mera naam izzat se lete hain.

Isliye khamoshi se apni pehchaan banata chalu,
Har din apni rooh ko aur mazboot banata chalu.
Aaj agar meri qadar kisi ko nazar nahi aati,
To kya hua…

Kal waqt khud ruk kar duniya se kahega —
“Ye wahi shakhs hai…
Jo khamoshi me apni taqdeer likh raha tha.”
