ghar se nikalte hi
meri pith se chipak jati hain do aankhen

gali par karte karte bis aankhen
bas stop tak pahunchte pahunchte do sau aankhen

metro station ki sidhiyan chadhte chadhte do hazar aankhen
coach mein apni seat pakadte pakadte bis hazar aankhen

chipak jati hain mere pure badan se
aur main dab jata hun hazaron aankhon ke ek pyramid ke niche

badi mushkil se khud ko khada karte hue
jhatakta hun main apne sar aur donon hathon ko

aur pure coach ke farsh par bikhar jati hain aankhen hi aankhen
ye chhoti badi aankhon ki chitkabri machhliyan

apne tez nukile dank liye badhti hain meri taraf
aur main bhagta hun musalsal pichhe ki taraf

jaise sharp shooter ko dekh bhagta hai koi target
musalsal pichhe ki taraf bhagte hue main mangta hun dua

aakhiri coach ki diwar tak pahunchne se pahle
aa jae koi station

khul jae koi darwaza
aur main jhatke se kud kar pa sakun najat

magar station aane par
metro ka darwaza bhi ghalat disha mein khul gaya hai

jidhar nazar ki had tak sirf ek lamba platform hai
jahan jagah jagah par chhoti badi aankhen jadi hui hain

magar kud jaane ke liye koi patri nahin hai
