aur ab meri monchhen purane sweater ki udhdi hui safed un
pile kaghaz mein rakkhi siyah film aur thuk-dibiya mein band

teri man ke ghane baal
jinhen chumte chumte main ne raaten teri soch mein

aainon jaise baramdon ki munaqqat safedi pe mal den
jahan bain mandla rahe the

jahan qahr ki subh aate hi sare stethoscope
sanp ban jaenge

aur bad-atwar narson ki aankhon ke surakh
kide makodon ki aamaj-gah

mere na-tawan dosh par shaal
aur tu shamshad-qad aahani jism sine mein

ajdad ka ilm maujon ka shor
daba kar mere kandhe aur man ke pair

mathe ka bosa ki jannat ke phulon ka ras
kuchh raqam de ke budhe muhafiz ko main ne kaha tha ki ye ghas to

saf kar do
kahin qabr nannhi si chhup hi na jae
