Sunahri Machhli, Urdu Nazam By Deepti Mishra

baat hai to kuchh aib si
lekin phir bhi hai
ho gai thi mohabbat
ek mard ko
ek sunahri machhli se
lahron se aTkheliyan karti
bal khati chamchamati machhli
bha gai thi mard ko
TukTuki bandhe pahron
dekhta rahta wo
us shoKH ki aThkheliyan
machhli ko bhi achchha lagta tha
mard ka is tarah se nihaarna
bandh gae donon pyar ke bandhan mein
milan ki KHwahish fitri thi
mard ne machhli se iltija ki
ek bar sirf ek bar
pani se bahar aane ki koshish karo
mohabbat ka junun
itna shadid tha ki
baghair kuchh soche-samjhe
machhli pani se bahar aa gai
chhaT-paTa gai
bahut bari tarah se chhaT-paTa gai
lekin ab
wo apne mahbub ki banhon mein thi
mohabbat ki kaifiyat mein
kuchh pal ko
sari taDap sari chhaT-paTahaT jati rahi
do badan ek jaan ho gae
sairab ho kar mahbub ne
mahbuba ko pani ke supurd kar diya
baDa anokha baDa masarrat-angez
aur baDa dardnak tha ye mel
har bar puri taqat baTor kar
chal paDti mahbuba
mahbub se milne
taDphaDati chhaT-paTati
pyar deti pyar pati
sairab karti sairab hoti
aur phir lauT aati pani mein
ek din
machhli ko jaane kya sujhi
us ne mard se kaha
aaj tum aao
main pani mein kaise aaun
kuchh pal apne sansen rok lo
machhli ne kaha
sans rok lun
yani jina rok lun
kuchh pal jine ke liye hi to aata hun main
tumhaare pas
sans rok lunga to jiyunga kaise
mard ne kaha
machhli sakte mein thi
ek hi pal mein:
mard ki fitrat aur mohabbat ke
bahami rishte ki sachchai
us ke samne thi
ab
kuchh jaanne pane aur chahne ko
baqi nahin bacha tha
machhli ne be-kaif nigahon se
mard ko dekha
aur Dub gai
be-panah gahraiyon mein
udhar KHud se be-KHabar mard
jine ki KHwahish liye abhi tak wahin baiTha hai
aur soch raha hai mera qusur kya hai
