PAISA AUR PYAR, SAB BIKTA HAI YAHAN

उन्हें हम पर हो यकीन, ऐसे तो नहीं हैं आसार।
कुछ भी हम कहें, हमेशा वह समझेंगे हमें गुनाहगार।

इक ज़माना था, हमें जी जान से चाहते थे,
कोई हो ना हो, वह थे हमारे तलबदार।

ज़िन्दगी फानी ही है, मानते हैं सब,
पर कुछ इतना नाज़ुक नहीं, जितना भरोसा या ऐतबार।

हमने सुना है बुराइयों से नफरत है सबको,
क्या खबर थी, मेरी अच्छाइयों से ही होंगे वह शर्मसार?

मेरे सच्च का एक भी ना निकला खरीदार,
जब झूठ और फरेब का यहां गर्म था बाज़ार।

माना कि कसमें, वादे, प्यार, वफा महज़ बातें हैं,
उनसे मिल कर जाना पैसा और प्यार दोनों हैं व्यापार।

काश जीने के इस अंदाज़ से यूँ ना रहते हम बेख़बर,
खुदग़र्ज़ी और चालाकी के हम भी होते तरफदार।

ज़िन्दगी के हर मक़ाम पर कुछ ना कुछ सीखा है हमने,
अब मैकदे की तालीम ने भी कर दिया हमें होशियार।

Author: Sunbyanyname

I have done a long stint in the Indian Navy that lasted for nearly thirty seven years; I rose as far as my somewhat rebellious and irreverent nature allowed me to. On retirement, in Feb 2010, the first thing that occurred to me, and those around me, was that I Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (you will find an article with this title in this blog) and hadn't lost all my noodles and hence thought of a blog titled 'This 'n That'. I later realised that every third blog is called 'This 'n That' and changed the name to 'Sunbyanyname'. I detest treading the beaten track. This blog offers me to air 'another way' of looking at things. The idea is not just to entertain but also to bring about a change. Should you feel differently, you are free to leave your comments. You can leave comments even when you agree and want to share your own experience about the topic of the blog post. Impudent or otherwise, I have never been insousciant and I am always concerned about the betterment of community, nation and the world. I hope the visitors of this blog would be able to discern it.
