वो रास्ते में कुछ अजनबियों की आँखे जो तुमसे मिल जाती है।
आँखे जो बहुत कुछ कहना चाहती है
आँखे जो बिन कहे कुछ सीख सी दे जाती है।
कुछ दिल में खौफ जगा जाती है
तो कुछ चेहरे पर मुस्कान दे जाती है।
ये आँखे तो ज़्यादातर को दो ही मिली है
फिर क्यों इतने भिन्न भिन्न भाव झलकाती है।
हाँ पर आँखों के रंग तो अलग होते ही है
पर उन रंगों से सोच कैसे जुडी है।
ये सिर्फ़ आँखे नहीं
ये नज़र है उन आँखों की जो तुम्हे देखती है
और ये नज़रिया है तुम्हारी आँखों का भी
कि तुम उन बुरी नज़रो को भाव देखते हो बस
या अच्छी नज़र की खोज में जुटे रहते हो।
It is clear that I am talking to you, for I am in a train tonight and it’s been just one day that I found you. Rather my post found your like. Imagine if our whole body were an eye. We could see all directions. Would you move? Our instinct to move is primarily driven by what we cannot see. Different animals have different peripheral visions. Birds have very wide, probably the widest of peripheries of vision. They are relatively free and have an additional degree of freedom, of flight. I will just rant about anything. I hope you don’t mind. And now for the poetic part of your description, a translation of Rumi says – You are not your body. You are the eye. There’s much more to talk. I hope we do. Reply.

And the one thing on our bodies, in the entire living kingdom, that has evolved only once, is eye. The first organisms produced energy from light.

That’s true. I have also heard that even the size of the eye remains almost the same throughout the life
