Yeh Kasoor Mera Hain!

Yeh waqt thhamta nahi

umar beet jaati hain,

tere khyaalo mein hi
raat katt jaati hain.
woh waqt,
woh manzar,
woh halaat nazar aatey hain
mujhko pukaarte woh
khayalaat aatey hain.
train ke dibbey
kabhi khaali
toh kabhi laasho se bharey
nazar aatey hain,
khoon mein rangey haath
meri aur badtey nazar aatey hain...
uss dhoond mein gunjta
ek sawal sunaai deta hain
btaa do mujhe, kya
yeh kasoor mera hain?

Guzra jab rasto se main kabhi

mujhe lasho ka ambaar nazar aaya hain,

sisak-sisak ke ro rahe bachho ka jamhoor nazar aaya hain

khil khilata jo kabhi hare rang se

woh khet lahu-luhan ho jaata hain

apno se door bhaagta aaj mujhko

insaan nazar aata hain

kaise kahoon main ye

yeh kasoor mera hain jo mujhko nazar aata hain

Gira tha ashqa meri aankho se bhi

apno ki maut ka gam kisko nahi hota,

 majboor kar detey hain halaat
warna yunhi na main gumgeen hota.
woh kursi mere watan ki

woh parcham meri jeet ka

sana hain khoon mein unke

jinka koi gunaah nahi

jo aaya sailab idhar

woh mere karmo ka hain,

yeh kasoor mera hain!

Kaat di baahe uss watan ki

jisne mujhko sab kuch diya

woh log jinse mill kar

iss mulk ko mene azaad karwaya tha

unko peeche chhod diya

jo na kar sakey firangi

woh kaarnama aaj kar dikhaya hain

iss mulk ke batware mein mera bhi naam aaya hain.

bahaa lahun itna ki, kalinga ka iteehas dauhraya hain

yeh kasoor mera hain jo mujhe aaj samajh aaya hain.
