Nazm, Urdu Nazam By Shabnam Ashai

zindagi ki cigarette
tumhaare sath pine ki KHatir
main nai apne sochne ki salahiyat
tumhaare nam kar di thi
aur wo tamam makhoTe
tumhaare kamre mein saja diye the
jinhen tum nai umar bhar
shikar kiya tha
main apni sari KHushbuen
KHarch kar ke
tumhaara pura dard KHarid rahi thi
lekin tum nai aaankhon par hi nahin
dimagh par bhi paTTi bandh rakhi thi
saDak hadse ke baad
mera plastar chaDhte samay
jo tum ne ek lamhe ko
apni aaankhon ki paTTi khol di thi
tumhaara sar jhuk gaya tha
mujhe malum tha main tumhein kho dungi
jo kho jata hai
us ke khone ka afsos ganTh ban jata hai
main agarche hil nahin sakti thi
sochne se mahrum nahin thi
aur duniya sochne se ibarat hai
meri aankhen suj gai thin band nahin thin
aur kanon mein wo sab aawazen aa rahi thin
jab tum mere hafize ke mafluj ho jaane ka elan kar rahe the
main dekh rahi thi
log tumhaari taraf mutawajjah hue the
lekin tumhaare dimagh pe lagai hui paTTi
sab ko nazar aa gai thi
tum jaan lo ki duniya sochne se ibarat hai
ab zindagi ki cigarette sirf main piyungi
aur tum cigarette ki rakh ki tarah
meri ungliyon se jhaDte rahoge
