ye main hun main
jaise aap aap hain

main paida hote hi uljhan mein hun
agar main ishq hun to fana kyun nahin ho jati

main samundar ki betab lahr hun to bah kyun nahin jati
main raqs-e-junun mein hun to diwangi sar kyun nahin chadhti

bechain ruh hun to jism se najat kyun nahin pati
main darti hun insani ashkal mein ghumte bhediyon se

main nafrat ki aag mein jale hue dilon se khauf khati hun
mujhe sahra se dar lagta hai

viranon se bhag aai hun
zist ki tamam-tar ranginiyon aur un ki haqiqaton se aagahi hai

hujum-e-dostan ke surur mein bachkana kaenat banati hun
kabhi aaina-ru nazar aati hun

kabhi hansti hun khud apni nadani par
kabhi be-sabab udas bahut hoti hun

kabhi sochti be-tahasha hun
kabhi likhti hun aise ki har lafz ruh ka dard ugal deta hai

aur kabhi tamam ke tamam alfaz kho jate hain
banawat aur dikhawe un ko nigal jate hain

main kabhi banjar hun aur kabhi janm ko janm deti hun
main jazbon khwabon aur duaon ko bahut sambhaal ke rakhti hun

aur un se dhage le kar khud ko bunti hun
main raushni nahin magar main tariki bhi nahin

ek sham ka sa malgaja hun kabhi
to kabhi din ka dhundlaka hun

aisi bahti hui nadi hun
jis ke kinare kai git

kai naghme madhur tanon mein lipte utarte hain
main zindagi ke samundar ki tamam lahron ko chhuti hun

aur moti moti kahaniyon mein tonic deti hun
sachche salma aur rupahle gote ki tarah

main khwab jiti hun
main haqiqat ko paint karti hun ki main haqiqat hun

apne ird-gard har achchhi buri haqiqat ka hissa hun
main sar-ta-pa mom hun

har aam aurat ki tarah mujhe jo bana do main bin jati hun
har mahaul mein dhal jati hun

mujhe bura samjha jae to bhi achchha
aur achchha samjha jae to bhi kya bura

!!!
ye main hun main
