Holipura: Quiver of History

Holipura: Quiver of History
घर से ये सोच के निकला हूँ कि मर जाना है
 अब कोई राह दिखा दे कि किधर जाना है
मौत लम्हे की सदा ज़िंदगी उम्रों की पुकार मैं
यही सोच के ज़िंदा हूँ कि मर जाना है 
नशा ऐसा था कि मय-ख़ाने को दुनिया समझा
होश आया तो ख़याल आया कि घर जाना है 
मिरे जज़्बे की बड़ी क़द्र है लोगों में
मगर मेरे जज़्बे को मिरे साथ ही मर जाना है
-राहत इंदौरी
