ZINDAGI KI EK SHAAM

zindagi ki shaam hai
aur kuch pal bitane
ateet ke sang
chal pade hai kadam
sane gard o ghubaar mein
har adchan se bekhabar
har hahakar ko kar darguzar
badh chale rahe
tumhare ghar talak.
lagan bas yoon hai
ke guzaar lain
kuch pal yahan thahar lain
kuch der
purani yadon ki thandi chaon mein.
kyonki shaam
to hai ab ho chooki
kuch hi der to aur hai roshni
kal ko jane kis pat ho dhoop khili?
aur jaane kab kis taraf kiska
ho raha suryaast ho?

Written while sitting in a traffic jam when going to meet a childhood friend after a long time. (July 2008)
