जीवन भर भागता है, ताकि एक दिन ये रुक सके,
चैन की एक ज़िन्दगी होगी, ऐसी कल्पना करता है,
उस भविष्य के चैन के लिए, अभी कि शान्ति को भंग करता है |
मैं आँख बंद करके अपने बड़ो का कहा मानती रही,
और इतने भरोसे ने मुझे अँधा कर दिया,
वो तो शुक्र है उस ठोकर का जो मुझको ऐसी लगी,
कि सब अंधे बन चुके हैं मेरी तरह,
ये मुझको पता चल गया |
मैं भी भाग रही थी उस दौड़ में,
वो दौड़ जो settle होने पर ख़तम होती है,
पर क्या मालूम था मुझ नादान को,
ये दौड़ तो हमारे अनंतकाल तक संग होती है |
स्थिर होना काल्पनिक एक बात है,
चाहे शादी करके ठहर जा तू,
पर शादी भी तो एक नई दौड़ कि शुरुआत है,
फर्क बस इतना है, कि पहले तु अकेला था,
अब पूरे परिवार का बोझ भी तेरे हाथ है |
एक बंधी आमदनी, settlement कि दूसरी परिभाषा है,
ताकि जीवन किसी तरह कट जाए, बस इसलिए तु कमाता है,
उलट रखें हैं तूने जीने के तरीके,
क्योंकि पैसा settled डरपोकों के पास नहीं,
ज़िन्दगी के खिलाड़ियों के पास आता है |
वो लोग जो डरते नहीं हैं हार से,
वही तो जीत कर इतिहास रचते हैं,
वरना कौन अजूबा बना है उनमें से,
जो settlement कि चौड़ से अकड़ते हैं |
तु चाहे कमा ले जीने के हिसाब से,
चाहे ढूंढ ले एक जीवन साथी,
पर स्थिरता का सपना एक धोका है,
नहीं रुकेगी तब भी, तेरे जीवन कि गाड़ी |
अब ये पट्टी हटा और अपनी आँखे खोल ले,
अब दुनिआ के हिसाब से चलना, तु छोड़ दे,
ये जान ले कि तु चलने क लिए ही जन्मा है,
किसी ठहराव के अपने सपने, अब तु खुद ही तोड़ दे |
पर अपना दिल कोई मत तोड़ना,
जिस रात से अभी जागे हो, बस उसके अँधेरे को है छोड़ना,
ये जो दिन निकला है बाहर, उसको देख के तो आ,
देख आज खुली आँखों से, क्या हसीन निकली है तेरी सुबह |
माना कि कुछ सपने तेरे, मैंने आज तोड़े हैं,
तेरी ज़िन्दगी के मकसद के छलावे पर ढके,
परदे आज मैंने खोले हैं,
पर दुःख ना मना, क्योंकि सच्चाई इस वहम से
बहुत हसीन है,
अब तु खुद बुन सकता है सपने अपने,
दुनिया के थोपे सपनो का अब नहीं तु अधीन है |
जो जान गया है अब कि तुझे कोई रोक नहीं सकता,
तो पंख अपने फैला ले,
क्या कमाल कि चीज़ है तु,
और क्या गज़ब है ये दुनिया,
बस इसी खोज में खुद को डुबा ले |
निकल जा उस सफ़र पर जिसकी मंज़िल एक अनूठा रहस्य है,
जिन हुनर के जंगलो में कोई ना घुसा,
वहां जाकर अपने रास्ते बना ले |
तू डर मत, सोच सब अगर स्थिर होकर बैठ गए होते,
तो हम सब आज भी शिकारी बन कर जीवन को सह रहे होते,
जो तब किसी ने अपने रास्ते खुद रचे ना होते,
तो आज भी हम सब गुफाओं में रह रहे होते |
जो दिए हैं पंछियों को पर, तो परिंदे उड़ते हैं,
फिर हमें तो सब कुछ दिया है रब ने,
तो हम आखिर क्यों रुकते हैं?
ये ऐसा बदन जो पहाड़ चढ़ सकता है, तैर सकता है,
ये ऐसा दिमाग जो धरती के बाहर तक लेजा सकता है,
फिर भी इंसान देख,
तु क्यों अँधा बन कर बैठा है,
तु अपने तोहफों से, क्यों मुँह फेरके रहता है |
बस बच्चे पैदा करके पालना अगर तेरा लक्ष्य होता,
तो खुदा ने तुझे जानवर ही ना बना दिया होता,
देख कैसे तूने अपने ख़ज़ाने को बेकार बना रखा है,
इस इंसान के जीवन के तोहफे को तूने मिट्टी में मिला रखा है |
हो चुकी है देर बहुत, तो अभी से शुरू कर देना,
दुनिया के सपनो को बदलकर, आज ही तुम अपने सपने बुन लेना,
और कोई रिश्तेदार पूछे अगर, कि बेटा Settle होने का क्या इरादा है,
तो आइना दिखा के उनको,
उनके settlement के जाल का,
एक तमाचा उनके भ्रम और गुरूर पर रख देना |

DESCRIPTION
What a meaningless phenomenon it is that human being keeps on trying to achieve something since the time they arrive at the age of discretion, without even knowing what are they trying to achieve and why? A school going child tries to achieve marks. He never asks himself why is he doing it? May be because that is what his parents and teachers expect from him. So we can say say that he does what is expected from him, forgetting to even think what he wants from his life?
As he hits the age of an adult, he is expected to earn. This is how people's expectations turns to his own. Now you will say that earning is a necessity of life ! Well yes it is but what's more necessary in life is to live ! To live for what you were born, not to live to earn and that's it ! Coming back to the boy who took other's expectations and turned it to his own, he soon will earn somehow, will marry, will get "settled". But do you think a person can ever get settled? Are you married and earning good? If yes, do you think you define the term settlement now ? Hell No !! You are now running again carrying the same load of expectations from the society. You are again running the same race but along with a family this time.
Settlement is made the most important and necessary stage of every human being whereas it is something totally undesirable and surely not made for human beings !! A person is required to settle, else he is wasting his life and he is called a looser. But let me disclose it to you why settlement is the worst thing a person can do :-
1. Settlement reveals the fear of insecurity :-
Humans have their dark sides. There is so much inside us that we aren't aware of and most of it is sour. One of it is insecurity and fear. Instead of fighting and facing with it, we people have made it a necessity of life. Can it be more idiotic ! We fear not finding a permanent source of income, we fear not finding a person when we get old so we marry as soon as possible, we fall in love without even knowing what love is. Whereas earning money is easy when you shift your focus from earning to learning, and when it comes to love, you need not find it, it will find you. It must have happened with most of you. Feel free to inform me if it matches your story somewhere. So, here it clears that settlement is not a necessity but a result of our fears.
2. Can you assure my settlement :-
I could assume that settlement is important if I was assured that I would not be disturbed by anyone after I get a fixed monthly income and after I get married. If I could be assured permanent love from my husband, and no more hectic schedules, a relaxed life which can literally define settlement, no more expectations of society to be fulfilled by me, or my children, if someone can give me a surety of no more troubles in my life, no worries of accidents, sudden losses, natural calamity etc. Can you do that? Can anyone in this world do that? Now I think you can understand why settlement is a hoax !!
3. Give me one reason why should humans settle ?
With so many unique talents, abilities, potential, with such a mysterious and powerful brain, with a body which can swim, climb, run, a mind which can make us fly, float and even take us to the moon, which point ever gave a hint to humanity that we should settle. Come on guys !! You gotta wake up.
4. If the living will settle, what will the dead do? :-
It doesn't need an explanation. Everything that settles, dies, and everything that is dead, settles.
5. It kills all the fun :-
What's the fun in living if you settle down (which never happens in literal terms). But even if it happens, would it be any interesting to live. Human minds are curious. We are explorers !! Until how long would you relax. Until when would you enjoy settling and doing nothing. What's the use of existing and being alive if all you do is sit and relax ? Nobody takes birth to relax, there is much more to this life instead of relaxing !
6. We crave what we don't have :-
Human instinct it is. We want to relax because we never do !! We have always been running. In fact we were born just because we won that first race of our life and so we want something that we don't have which is - settlement. But we should realize it that its not made for us and we were not born for it. It's better we learn it as soon as possible that we were born to explore, to move our a** , to wander, to keep moving and to enjoy the journey.
7. Settlement kills originality :-
Since this concept is made out by the society, it doesn't allow a person to be original, to find his own purpose, to explore himself and kills anything which gives life to humans. Yes, we need to get a life and settlement won't allow us to. Our direction and path is already drawn by people which ends at settlement and most of us are forced to move on it and criticized when they create their own paths. By now, you must have realised how severly this concept of settlement is sucking out our blood.
Well, now its pretty much clear why settlement is a hoax !! It hurts to realize that what we were doing is all wrong but I would ask you people to be happy as you are shown new gates to a new path where you can create your own new world. I did the task of removing the colored glasses from your eyes, and now since you know that you are born to explore and you are unstoppable, so now you will have to take the steps, fight with your fears and hesitation stand up for yourself, go against the society and create your own paths. I hope you never get settled in your life, because that is how you will create new paths for others to walk on :)
