ek be-tuki nazm
aaj bistar hi mein hun
kar diya hai aaj
mere muzmahil aaza ne izhaar-e-baghawat barmala
mera jism-e-na-tawan mera ghulam-e-eba-wafa
waqai malum hota hai thaka haara hua
aur main
ek sakht gir aaqa… zamane ka ghulam
kis qadar majbur hun
pet puja ke liye
do qadam bhi uth ke ja sakta nahin
mere cha kar panw shal hain
jhuk gaya hun in kaminon ki raza ke samne
sar utha sakta nahin
aaj bistar hi mein hun
