abhi jaise ye kal ki baat lagti hai
ki tum chhote se gudde the

tumhein chalna nahin aata tha
ghutnon ghutnon chalte the

kabhi kursi kabhi sofa pakad kar jab khade hote
to is chalne ki koshish mein

tumhaare nanhe-munne panw aksar dagmaga jate
qadam bhi ladkhada jate

to main ungli pakad kar phir tumhein chalna sikhati
phir tumhein abbu ne ek walker la diya

ab tum ude phirte kisi ke hath kab aate
phir ek din subh jab so kar uthi to main ne dekha

ki tum bina walker bina koi sahaare apne panw par khade ho
aur chal rahe ho

phir tum yunhi chalte rahe chalte rahe chalte rahe
din mahine aur mahine salon mein dhalte rahe

tum yunhi chalte rahe
aur chalte chalte ek din

aakhir itni dur ja nikle
meri aankhon se ojhal ho gae

main ne tumhein chalna sikhaya tha!
