Kyon

[ Lalit's editorial skills and some seriously good insights helped make a few random lines a good poem. Thanks for bearing with my incorrect Hindi and random scrawlings and making it a nice readable poem :) ]

khaali dil pe saji sooni khaamoshi hain
khokle waadon se bane lambe raaste hain
laashein bichi hain,
ghav ubharkar naasor bane hain,
jo kahin se teri yaad aayi to
jalti raet main baarish, si kyon hain

aahon ne aawaz di hain
siskiyan karwat badalti hain raat bhar
raat ki maili chaadar ye kahti hain
koi waada ya umeed to nahin
phir bhi aaj dil ko mere
tera hi intezaar sa kyon hain

soone dagar pe ek adhmare ped ki shaaq hain
toote kuch thahake hain, murjhaye kuch lamhe hain
na zindagi ki shor hain yahaan, na maut ki koi aahat
phir bhi ped ki ek hari shaakh pe...
aaj bhi bahar si kyun hain

duniya ki mehfil main,
ruswa hokar meri mohobbat khadi hain
aaoge kabhi tum yahaan,
is baat ka yakeen to nahin
phir bhi teri ek nazar ke liye
ye dil bekaraar sa kyon hain
