Kis Se Poochhun

#Nazm

Kis se poochhun,
Wo kya shakhs hai,

Jo meri aarzu ke jharokhon mein thehre hue,
Saare chehron mein bikhra hua hai,

Magar khud abhi apne chehre mein utra nahin,

Kis se poochhun,
Wo kya naam hai,
Jo meri dhadkanon ke muqaddar mein marqoom hai,

Aur wo kya ajnabi hai,
Jo sadiyon se mere khyaalon ke qarye mein aabaad hai,

Magar mera surat-shanasa nahin,

Kis ki aawaz hai,
Jo meri rooh mein naghma-parwaaz hai,

Kaun batlayega us nagar ka pata,
Jis ki mitti ki khushbu mere jism ke waste darj hai,

Jis ke deewar-o-dar meri be-khwaab aankhon se manoos hain,

Aur jis ko kabhi main ne dekha nahin,
Na-rasaai meri na-rasaai meri,

Jis ko paya na tha us ko khone ka ghum,
Meri khwahish ke seene ka nasoor hai,

Kis ko aawaz dun kis ka maatam karun,
Wo abhi apne chehre mein utra nahin,

Kis se puchhun mera muddaa kaun hai,
Na-rasa kaun hai.!!
