'rubi' ka halwa kis ne churaya
ammi ne puchha abbu ne puchha

dadi ye bolin 'rubi' ka halwa
dekha tha main ne mez pe rakkha

aakhir aai meri hi shamat
rozi ne mujh ko khate tha dekha

abbu ne kar di meri pitai
chune mein kattha kis ne milaya

dadi ne puchha ammi se ja kar
dada ye bole uf meri ainak

kis ne uthai rakh di kahan par
aakhir aai meri hi shamat

ainak jo tuti phuta muqaddar
ammi ne kar di meri pitai

jute ki polish dibiya bhari thi
lekin hai us mein kaisi ye dori

bhabhi ne puchha polish hui kya
'rubi' ne batla di meri ye chori

aakhir aai meri hi shamat
zaea hui sab sina-zori

bhayya ne kar di meri pitai
phadi ye kis ne rufi ki copy

teacher ne puchha maktab mein sab se
sab ne nahin ki lekin main chup tha

kuchh bhi na bola pas-e-adab se
is pe bhi aai meri hi shamat

bach na saka main josh-e-ghazab se
teacher ne kar di meri pitai

kat di kis ne gend rubber ki
achchhi nahin hai aisi shararat

baithe hue hain sare khiladi
pahunchi hai sab ke dil ko aziyyat

chaqu jo nikla jeb se meri
aa gai phir meri hi shamat

yaron ne kar di meri pitai
