Kala

kala had se bhi kala tha

utna kala jitni teri soch

utna kala jitni tere dil ki kalak

kaun tha kala

kala kala sochta jata

khurach khurach kar nochta jata

apna hona khojta jata

jumlon ki badbu ke andar

apni KHushbu sunghta jata

apni cigarette phunkta jata

kale ki cigarette bhi kali

kale ka gurda bhi kala

kale ki kuppi bhi kali

kale ki chuski bhi kali

kale ka har kash bhi kala

har har kash se lal bhabhuka

kale ki aankhen bhi kali

aankhon se girne wale sab aansu kale

aur kali aankhon mein dikhne wali

mushkil ki diwar bhi kali

kale ki to jit bhi kali haar bhi kali

kale ke sab balb bhi kale

kale ki sab wiring kali

wiring wo jo andar andar

sulag sulag kar

kale ki sari sochon ko

aur KHwabon ko

gala chuki thi

jala chuki thi

jab wo chalta to lagta wo lahraata hai

chalte chalte bal khata hai

gir jata hai

kala kya tha

kalang ka Tika

zamin ka dhabba

kala jis ki aag mein jal kar rakh hua tha

kale ke andar ki aag thi

ya thi wo bahar ki aag

aag bhi kali

dhuan bhi kala rakh bhi kali

aag se uThne wala ek ek shoala kala

kale ki bebasi bhi kali

kale ki khujli bhi kali

kale ke sab phoDe-phunsi chhaale kale

kale ko sab kala kahne wale kale

ek din kali saDak kinare

bangali ke pan ke cabin ki jali ko thame kala

ghur raha tha aate jate

rang-birange kirdaron ko

rickshaw motor cycle aur caron ko

ek lambi si kali gaDi

dhuan uDati

chiKHti aur chillati guzri

gahre kale baalon wali gori bachchi

ek gali se bhagti nikli

kala bhaga

aur gori bachchi ko pure zor se dhakka de kar

kali gaDi ke dhakke ko KHud par jhela

kala jate jate sab se kaisa khela

gori bachchi bach gai lekin

kala apni jaan de baiTha

pile lal gulabi chehre

kale ki jaanib jab lapke

sab ne dekha

kale ki aankhon mein chiKH raha tha ek sawal

kale ke zaKHmon se bahne wala KHun tha lal
