mere raste mein ek mod tha
aur us mod par

ped tha ek bargad ka
uncha

ghana
jis ke sae mein mera bahut waqt bita hai

lekin hamesha yahi main ne socha
ki raste mein ye mod hi is liye hai

ki ye ped hai
umr ki aandhiyon mein

wo ped ek din gir gaya hai
mod lekin hai ab tak wahin ka wahin

dekhta hun to
aage bhi raste mein

bas mod hi mod hain
ped koi nahin

raston mein mujhe yun to mil jate hain mehrban
phir bhi har mod par

puchhta hai ye dil
wo jo ek chhanw thi

kho gai hai kahan
