Dil ka Sach

Jab hum khud hi apne dil ki aawaz ko poori tarah nahi sun paate,
to doosron par hukm thopna sirf rishte ki rooh ko thaka deta hai.
Samajh—na zabar-dasti—hi woh saans hai
jo dilon ko ek hi sur me chalna sikhati hai

– Zulfikar Inamdar

Dil Ka Sach :

Arz kiya hai…

Apna hukm kisi par thopna…
ye dil ki rawani ko tod deta hai,
rishte ki rooh par
khamoshi ka bojh rakh deta hai.

Hum khud hi
apne jazbaat ko poori tarah padh nahi paate—
kabhi darr me dabaa kar,
kabhi ego me chipaa kar,
kabhi aadat me zinda rakh kar…
phir bhi chahte hain
ke koi dusra humari har baat
bina sawaal ke maan jaye.

Sach yehi hai…
Hum apne hi sach se
baar-baar bhaag jaate hain.
Kabhi ek faisla raat ko kar lete hain,
subah usi ko badal dete hain.
Kabhi apne dard ko chhupa kar jeete hain,
kabhi apne gusse ko masoomi ke parde me lapet dete hain.
Jab hum khud itne uljhe hue hote hain,
phir hukm ka bojh kisi aur pe rakhna—
ye rishte ka insaaf nahi hota.

Zindagi me har shakhs
apna ek khalsa ateet uthaaye chalta hai:
kisi ke kandhon par yaadon ka bojh,
kisi ke seene me roothi hui dhadkanein,
kisi ki rooh me kuch adhoori umeedein.
Hum sab sirf samajh chahte hain—
be-jhijhak, be-jalan, be-sawaal.

Par jab hum hi apne dil ki aawaz
saalon tak nahi sunte,
to kisi aur se poori itaat ki umeed
sirf dil ki thakaan badha deti hai.

Rishte…
zabar-dasti se nahi chalte—
wo narmi se chalne wale safar hote hain.
Ek me intense sach hota hai,
to doosre me naram dard.
Ek me lafz bolte hain,
to doosre me khamoshi samajh deti hai.

Jo rishte samajh se likhe jaate hain,
wo bina hukm ke bhi sacche rehte hain;
Aur jo rishte hukm se chalaye jaate hain,
wo saath rehte hue bhi
andar se aahiste-aahiste mar jaate hain.

Dil ka sach jab bol uthe,
to na hukm ka sahara hota hai,
na zabar-dasti ka.
Bas ek naram si guzarish hoti hai—
“Mujhe samajh lo…
jaise main khud ko samajhna chaahta hoon.”

Aur jab kisi ko
dil ki khamoshi bhi samajh aa jaaye—
phir na roothna baaki rehta,
na manwana…
Rishte khud-ba-khud
ek hi sur me chal padte hain,
jaise ek dil me
do jazbaat saath dhadak rahe ho—
ek intense, ek naram…
par dono apne bilkul sachche.
