ali-mohsin ke mamun lut ke ambaala se jab lahore aae the
kalam-e-pak alam aur sajda-gahen sath lae the

chunanche un ke ghar mein mustaqil duldul bhi palta tha
hamesha nau mohrram ko alam ghar se nikalta tha

har aashure ali-mohsin bade mamun ke ghar lahore hota tha
wahin do chaar din ruk kar karachi jab wo aata tha

to bedin road ke amritsari halwai se ammi aur abba ke liye
laddu bhi lata tha

ali-mohsin ke abba-ji bade hi pak-tinat the
magar un ke pakhodon aur kamar par mustaqil kharish si rahti thi

ali-mohsin ki ammi kina-parwar thin
magar beta to beta tha

so kahti thin bahu jab ghar mein laungi
phatengi tab teri aanhken

chadhawa jab chadhaungi
wo is par kuchh na kahta tha

wo un donon se waise baat yun bhi
kam hi karta tha

wo ammi aur mamun ke liye lahore to jaata
magar din-dar logon se

use raghbat na hoti thi
aur un se bahs karne ki

kabhi himmat na hoti thi
ali-mohsin ke tinon yar umar, parkash aur safdar

bade hi bad-aqida the
wo chaaron sath jab parkash ke us flat mein hote

kiliftan mein jahan wo shyam, rabart aur nazar ke sath rahta tha
bade hi kaif mein hote

wo sare mil ke jab phir bich barauri ki chunida lemun wali udka
ke jam bharte the

to apni sham ko khush-gappiyon bad-feliyon ke nam karte the
umar, parkash, safdar aur ali-mohsin ka daftar ek hi tha

is liye wo pite pite maera ko yaad karte the
kai salon se wo bhi sath thi un ke

wo hafte bhar mein har din ek nai khushbu lagati thi
bade danton jhuke kandhon ki ladki

jis ki sab baaten nirali thin
aur aanhken kitni kali thin

ali-mohsin ki aanhken to nahi baaten nihayat khubsurat thin
wo yaron ko batata tha

ki wo daftar mein aai sab nai intarnz ke chakkar mein rahta hai
jo thode din ko aati thin

qamisen jin ki unchi thin
ya jin ke chaak niche the

jo bichwe aur pazeben pahanti thin
jo khush hon ya na hon

khush-haal lagti thin
wo baaton ki ani se jab kisi intern ke dil mein

bahut se nit-nae aur pur-masarrat khwab bota tha
use khud bhi zara dhima sa aur maghlub sa ek ishq hota tha

wo apne kaam mein bhi mustaid tha
company ne us ko gadi di thi jis mein dek laga tha

aur kisi intern ko le kar wo us par ghumta rahta
pathane-khan ko sunta musalsal jhumta rahta

ali-mohsin police ke rokne ke waqt se pahle
kadahi kha ke aur yaron se rukhsat le ke apne ghar pahunchta tha

pahunchte hi wo tw par kisi channel se aati
indian picture lagata tha

magar phir bhul kar sab
mayera ki khushbuon mein dub jaata tha
