kisi ki jeb se naqadi
kisi ke kan ki baali

kisi ki chudiyan
hathon se

mahnga koi mobile
jhalak t-t ki dikhla kar

jo mala tut kar bikhre
to moti bin lete the

gharibon ki bhi kul-punji
abhi kal tak yahan hum

chhin lete the
magar ab log bhi apne bahut hushiyar bante hain

shikasta hi sahi
phir bhi hamari rah ki

diwar bante hain
na kanon mein koi baali pahanta hai

na hathon mein
kade sone ke hote hain

dulhan ke jo bhi zewar hain
wo masnui

jo mobile hain wo naqli
numaish ke sabhi taur-o-tariqe

khokhle hain
kuchh nahin asli

to phir bazar ja kar kya karen
jeben to hain khali

chalo kuchh aisa karte hain
kisi ke hath se thaila dawaon ka

lapak kar chhin lete hain
dawaen bhi to mahngi hain

kahin par bech dete hain
kahin par bech dete hain

ya phir ghar ko palatte hain
abhi kuchh roz pahle hi

jo hum ne baaliyan kanon se nochi thin
wo main ne tohfatan bakhshin thin biwi ko

kade sone ke amman ko
to phir kuchh aisa karte hain

kade amman se ja kar chhin late hain
wahi do baaliyan sone ki jo bakhshin thin biwi ko

unhen phir noch late hain
chalo bazar chalte hain
