Ehsaas

Off late, a video of a woman being unwillingly touched on a plane by a man has been making the rounds on social media. Though it's nothing new or unheard of, the video going viral, makes us think critically about the simple human touch. A few words I wrote this evening and would like to share... 

"Dekh ay Khuda teri duniya mein lams ka mazaak ban gaya
Jo qurbat ka vaahan tha, woh auzaar ban gaya
Bande ki neeyat ne yun rukh badla ki dafe amraz aaj talwaar ban gaya
Kehte hain kaid mein bhookh, pyaas se bhi zyaada banda ehsaas ko tarasta hai,
Phir kyun aaj yeh ehsaas hi napaak ban gaya."
