Pal

Aasan nahi hai is pal ko samajna,
Waqt bhi na samaj paya ise,
Rehte hain chaaron taraf waqt ke ye,
Phir bhi prashan bankar reh jaten hai uske maathe par,
Kya yehi hai Pal.

Kabhi ummedon se bahara,
Kabhi khushiyon se bahara,
Kabhi gam se bhara,
kabhi narazgi se bhara,
Kya yehi hai Pal.

Sabko jakde rakha hai isne,
Aacha ho to khusiyan de jata hai,
Bura ho to dukh de jata hai,
Koi nahi janta iska ant kahan hai,
Kya yehi hai Pal.

Kabhi ise soch main buna jata hai,
Kabhi ise kaam main dhala jata hai,
Jo jeet jata hai iski takat ko,
Use harpal yaad kiya jata hai,
Kya yehi hai Pal.

Iska kisiko andaza nahi hai,
Kab badlega khushi se gam main,
Haste muskurate chehron ko bhi,
Kab mod jayega dukhon ke gam main,
Kya yehi hai Pal.

Shayad yehi hai Pal,
Laakhon ki zindagi apne hath liye chalta hai,
Soch ko bhi apni mutthi main band kar leta hai,
Palak ke jhapkate hi Sab badal jata hai .
Haan yahi hai Pal.
