mere kandhe pe baitha koi
padhta rahta hai injil o quran o wed

makkhiyan kan mein bhinbhinati hain
zakhmi hain kan

apni aawaz kaise sunun
rana hindu tha akbar musalman tha

sanjai wo pahla insan tha
hastinapur mein jis ne qabl-e-masih

telewision banaya
aur ghar baithe ek andhe raja ko

yudh ka tamasha dikhaya
aadmi chand par aaj utra to kya

ye taraqqi nahin
ab se pahle, bahut pahle

jab zarra tuta na tha
chashma jauhar ka phuta na tha

farsh se arsh tak ja chuka hai koi
ye aur aisi bahut si jahaalat ki baaten

mere kandhe pe hoti hain
kandhe jhuke ja rahe hain

qad mera raat din ghat raha hai
sar kahin panw se mil na jae
