jab kabhi tum
cigarette jalane ki

koshish karte the
main phunk mar kar

bujha deti thi
kitni bar kaha tha

tum se
ye zindagi

sirf tumhaari nahin hai
mera jo dil hai

wo tumhaare cigarette ke dhuen
se kharab ho raha hai

aish-tray mein badhti rakh
se zindagi meri

siyah hui jati hai
bujhaya karo inhen

jalane se pahle
ek kash zindagi ka

bujhi hui cigarette se lagana
main ne sanjo kar rakhe hai

kuchh purane dabbe cigarette ke
jis par hum ne

zindagi ka plan banaya tha
wo cigarette kharab ho gai hai

lekin plan abhi bhi
sanjida lagta hai

ab na jalana cigarette
ab main wahan nahin hun

jalti cigarette bujhane ko
