Rishta

bhuk ke shishe bhi

dhundhle paD chuke hain ab

shisha to zariya tha

uThe hue hathon aur soe hue bad-rang dhabbon ke beach

aar-par dekhne ka

bandhi hui muTThi aur phaile hue hathon ke beach

chup aur chillate hue

hathon ke beach

roTi ek rishta thi

aur ye rishta bhi bhuk ke shishon ki tarah

dhundhla hota ja raha hai

to kya bhuk ka shisha

roTi ka rishta

andhere mein khulte we dwar hain

jahan hum ek dusre ko nahin pahchante
