Father

mujh ko thakne nahin deta ye zarurat ka pahad mere bachche mujhe budha nahin hone dete

aziz-tar mujhe rakhta hai wo rag-e-jaan se ye baat sach hai mera bap kam nahin man se

un ke hone se bakht hote hain bap ghar ke darakht hote hain

betiyan bap ki aankhon mein chhupe khwab ko pahchanti hain aur koi dusra is khwab ko padh le to bura manti hain

hamein padhao na rishton ki koi aur kitab padhi hai bap ke chehre ki jhurriyan hum ne

ye soch ke man bap ki khidmat mein laga hun is ped ka saya mere bachchon ko milega

mujh ko chhanw mein rakha aur khud bhi wo jalta raha main ne dekha ek farishta bap ki parchhain mein

ghar ki is bar mukammal main talashi lunga gham chhupa kar mere man bap kahan rakhte the

muddat ke baad khwab mein aaya tha mera bap aur us ne mujh se itna kaha khush raha karo

bap zina hai jo le jata hai unchai tak man dua hai jo sada saya-figan rahti hai

der se aane par wo khafa tha aakhir man gaya aaj main apne bap se milne qabristan gaya

bachche meri ungli thame dhire dhire chalte the phir wo aage daud gae main tanha pichhe chhut gaya

jab bhi walid ki jafa yaad aai apne dada ki khata yaad aai

wo ped jis ki chhanw mein kati thi umr ganw mein main chum chum thak gaya magar ye dil bhara nahin

mera bhi ek bap tha achchha sa ek bap wo jis jagah pahunch ke mara tha wahin hun main

wo waqt aur the ki buzurgon ki qadr thi ab ek budha bap bhare ghar pe bar hai

in ka uthna nahin hai hashr se kam ghar ki diwar bap ka saya

haddiyan bap ki gude se hui hain khali kam se kam ab to ye bete bhi kamane lag jaen

main ne hathon se bujhai hai dahakti hui aag apne bachche ke khilaune ko bachane ke liye

subh sawere nange panw ghas pe chalna aisa hai jaise bap ka pahla bosa qurbat jaise maon ki

main apne bap ke sine se phul chunta hun so jab bhi sans thami bagh mein tahal aaya
