"Tumhari qabr par, Main fateha padhne nahin aaya
Mujhe maloom tha, Tum mar nahin sakte
Tumhari maut ki sachchi khabar jisne udaai thi, Woh jhootha tha
Woh tum kab the, Koi sookha hua patta hawa se hil ke toota tha
Meri aankhen, Tumhare manzaron mein qaid hain ab tak
Main jo bhi dekhta hoon, Sochta hoon
Woh.. Wahi hai..
Jo tumhari neknaami aur badnaami ki duniya thi
Kahin kuch bhi nahi badla, Tumhare haath meri ungliyon mein saans lete hain
Main likhne ke liye jab bhi, Kalam kaghaz uthaata hoon
Tumhe baitha hua main, Apni hi kursi mein paata hoon
Badan mein mere, Jitna bhi lahu hai
Woh tumhari Laghzishon, Nakaamiyon ke saath behta hai
Meri aawaz mein chhup kar, Tumhara zehan rehta hai
Meri bimaariyon mein tum, Meri laachaariyon mein tum
Tumhari qabr par jis ne tumhara naam likha hai
Woh jhootha hai..
Tumhaari qabr mein.. Main dafan hoon.. Tum zinda ho !!
Mile fursat kabhi, To fateha padhne chale aana.."
Muqtida Hasan ‘X Y’ wrote this poem upon the death of his father. When ‘X Y’ was quite young, his father died in Pakistan.
The sad division of the country did not allow 'X Y' to get a visa (from India), to visit his father upon the news of his death. So he wrote this poem for him.
As a young boy, ‘X Y’ was once passing by a Temple where a Surdas ‘Bhajan’ about Radha and Krishna was being sung. The beauty of the ’Bhajan’ inspired ‘X Y’ to start writing poems.
