जीने की भी फुर्सत नहीं

सोचेंगे फुर्सत में कभी तुझे किस हद्द तक मैंने जाना है ,
था कभी जो अक्स सा मेरा, क्यों आज वो मुझसे अंजाना है,
शायद इल्म भी है मुझे इस बात की,
पर मैं जान कर गौर करता नहीं,
देते रहते हैं रह-रहकर खुद को तसल्ली,
सोचें कैसे, आज कल जीने की भी फुर्सत नहीं।

[ Will sit down and think someday, to what extent have I known you,
He who used to be my shadow, why is he a stranger to me now,
May be I know the reason too,
But I knowingly don’t think about it,
I try to solace myself saying,
How can I think, when I don’t have even time to live. ]

## Another ‘challenge’ given by a friend to complete. I hate them, because they are tough. But they also bring a fresh perspective and hence are more satisfying to complete than something written completely by own. ##
