Baat faqat…

                  

       Friends,

       It is after a
hiatus of some two months that I am now on my blog. This time, though,

       has been an
eye-opener in a way. Almost all my friends who were eager visitors to

       my blogs
earlier have stopped visiting my page as if i were not existing any longer.

       Such is the
transitoriness of our human-relationships, though in present case, only     

       virtual ones. May i
request once more to my friends to do me favour as before.? Here 

       is a ghazal for your perusal. Thank you.

                               Ghazal

 

       Baat  faqat meri 
nahi  har khas-o-aam  ki baat 
hai.

 

       Boye  the 
aam  maine, 
baboolon ki hui barsaat hai.

 

       Rahbaron  ki 
jaadoogari hai aur kuchh 
halaat   hai,

 

       kimiyagar nahi
the hum, ye haar apno ki saugat hai.

 

       Parindon se
kabhi poochhte iss shakhs ki kya bisaat hai,

 

       Azad tha ye
hamari tarah, waqt - waqt ki  baat  hai.

 

       Falaq par basti
banaenge dharti par machaa kohram hai,

 

       Badbaolon ki
mehfil mein sanzeedagi ki kya ye baat hai.

 

       Ummeeden jis
par babasta thin beech rah chhod gayaa,

 

       Kuchh to
majboori thi uski kuchh uski samajh ki baat hai.

 

       Voh butkhane
mein jakar baith gayaa aur mein tanha raha,

 

       Na zamaane mein
aam baat hai phir meri kya auqaat hai.
