dilli ki ek sham

farq kuchh bhi nahin
chahe kisi bhi samt chalun

shahr ka dasht ghana aur ghana hota hai
nim-tarik gali

jis mein laga ek khamba
zardi-e-khas se rangta hai gali ke kankar

jhuk gaya hai jo kisi pir-e-khamida ki tarah
dam-ba-dam jal ke bujha

bujh ke jala
kya kahiye

bas yahi shai hai jise shahr ka jugnu kah dun
sochta hun main kabhi yun bhi ki is duniya mein

be-maani hai
mera wajd mein aa jaana bhi

be-maani hai
maani ki tawaqqo' karna

ek jangal hai ki jis mein mere aa jaane se
farq kuchh bhi nahin

chahe koi bhi rah chunun
ye jagah bhul bhulaiya hai

magar raston se
main bhi manus hun

duniya bhi hai
sab log bhi hain

aur ek lamha-e-be-sud ko jine ke liye
sabhi koshan hain

sabhi ji rahe hain jine ko
aur main bhid mein tanha hun

thaga sa
phir bhi

aaj main bhi hun isi bhid ka hissa bhar
bas

main sawalon se aqidon pe ludhak aaya hun
dhundh hai zehn mein

pasti ka mujassam hai badan
koi aawaz-e-nihan

mujh se dobara na kahe
jag kar bhi na uthe bistar-e-duniya se kyon

tum maani ke musafir the
musafir hi to the
