MURKY MORNING

"...अफताब के आगोश में एक खामोशी छू गई

बिखरी पर्छियो में एक ग़ज़ल बन गई.

कोरे कागज़ को कही शब्दों की नजाकत मिल गई

एक नज़र से तस्वीर मुक्कारार हो गई .."

“You thought that…. I did not shelter…

gratitude of values that to remember..

magnitude of vision that to harbor…

fortitude of act that to honour…

you thought that….. I missed it all…

in my arrogance and quarrel…

only bitterness that would endure…

but… I picked it up all residual….

Of memory that lapsed without perusal..

Of shadow that disappeared without the factual…

and

I heard the echo of sedimented time

To see you again eye to eye…”
