Their Snub, My Prowess

Their Snub, My Prowess
(Their Ignorance could be the reason for your Excellence)

Yeh baat hai un dino ki,

Yeh baat hai un lamhon ki...

Jis pal maine abhi uthna shuru he kiya tha ki mjhe galat karar diya gya,

Mjhe suna na gya,

Or dba diya gya,

Mujhe bola gya ki mai yeh sab nahi kr skta;

Kahin na kahin,

Mai andr he andr bs dabta chla gya,

Khudko bura kehne lga lekin,

Khudse ldta rha;

Fir bhi maine haar na maani,

Maine umeed na chori jo mai zindagi me banna chahta tha...

Kyuki maine seekha tha,

Maine seekha tha uttkarsh hona,

baad me pooorn krna;

Maine seekha tha fall ki chinta na krte hue apne ache karm k saath kaam krna,

Or aisi boht c baatien mne seekhi thi.. 

mehsoos ki thi,

Jo tumhare liye sirf channd panktiya ya baat krne ka vishey ho skti hai;

Lekin mne kiya,

apne assvikaar, aggyan or dbbaa diye jaane k baavjood maine sab kiya,

Kyuki maine seekha tha kabhi haar na manna,

Maine sekha tha khudko, dusro k vichaaro k liye mjbooran na badlna;

Meri ek aadat thi,

Mai kisi ki nakl nhi krta,

Mai khud me he shresth hu, 

or meri shreshth ta ka abhi aana baaki hai;

Badlaav mere raaste me aane lge,

Me sab ko dikhaa-dena chahta tha ki mai kis chiz ka bna hoon,

Kyuki mai paida he bda bnne k liye hua tha;

Maine sochlia tha ki is zindagi me kuch krke dikhana hai,

Kuch kr dikhane k junoon ko lekr m koshish krta gya.. krta gya.. or bs krta he chla gya,

Mujhe pta bhi na lga ki kitni baar mere ghutne zmeen pr pde,

Lekin...

Mera aatm-vishwas, dridh-nishchey, or gehra sankalp mjhe is saflta ki rah pr le chla,

Chlte he chlte itna aage niklgya ki mera samey badlne lga;

Lekin mai is baat ko janta tha ki ghadi k kaante bhi apne us bindu pr vaapis aate hn jahan se chle the, lekin kbhi rukte nahi or bs bdhte he chle jaate h...

Kyuki mai samjh chuka tha ki agr koi sahi waqt hai kuch kr dikhaane ka toh vo yhi wqt hai...

jis pal mei mai hoon...;

Aaj bhi jab mai 2 by 2 futt ki kaanch ki khidki k bhr dekhta hu,

Toh daud lgaate ped paudhe mjhe mere us wqt ki pehchaan kraate h,

Jis pal mne abhi uthna shuru he kiya tha ki mjhe unsuna krdiya gya, 

mjhe gambheerta se na liya gya...;

Par choonki

Mujhe samjh mei aagya tha ki samey ka badlav kya hai toh mai ruka nahi,

Logon ne mjhe tiraskar bhri nazron se dekhna shuru krdia;

Lekin meri seekh...

Mera gyaan mjhe is pal mei bhi kuch sikhaane ko paraspr tha;

Dukhadd-Assabhya-or-sakht vatavarn hone k baavjood bhi m na ruka kyuki mjhe rokna abb namumkin sa hogya tha,

Or m bdhta he chla gya...

Badhta he chla gya apne vichaaron or drishti ko lekr,

Jo mujhe is dhundle, aa-spasht bhavishya se bhr le aya;

Maine koi bnne ka spna dekha tha.. 

kuch kr dikhane ka sapna dekha tha

Kyuki har-koi toh sab the;

Toh yhi se

Apni is aatmkatha ko likhne k baare mne socha, 

is ummr me he..

Jis pal mai abhi itna jaana maana nhi tha
