maine bagh ki jaanib piTh kar li

main ne dajla-o-furaat ke mashriq mein
ek qadim aur raushan ped ke niche

sajdon ka khiraj wasul kiya
aur phaldar darakhton se dhake

bagh mein muqim hawa
jise mere aur us aurat ke liye

aarasta kiya gaya tha
jis ki janm-bhumi

meri dain pasli thi
main ne pahli bar use

zindagi ke ped ki sunahri shakhon ke darmiyan
rengte dekha

wo
ped ki hifazat pe mamur tha

us ki kasni aankhon mein
qail kar lene wali

chamak thi
main ne apni bhuk

imtinaa ke phal pe tastir ki
to meri aankhen

us aurat ke jism ke aar-par
dekhne lagin

aur
bagh ke sabz ped

mere sar se
apne sae ki chhatriyan sametne lage

main ne zindagi ke ped se lipte azhdahe ko
tin barabar hisson mein taqsim kiya

ek hisse se
apne sar ke liye shimla ijad kiya

dusre hisse ko
izar-band bana kar kamar ke gird lapeta

jo bach raha
use apni sathi aurat ke

baalon mein gundha
aur

bagh ki jaanib pith kar li
meri aurat ne mujh se chhup kar

us ki siyah jald se
apni nili aankhon ke liye

surma ijad kiya
aur raat ke pichhle pahar

apne dudh se
us ki ziyafat karne lagi

main ne muqaddas pahad ki sab se buland choti
use dan ki

aur apni peshani
khak pe rakh di
