Sanp

ye sanp aaj jo phan uThae

mere raste mein khaDa hai

paDa tha qadam chand par mera jis din

usi din ise mar Dala tha main ne

ukhaDe the sab dant kuchla tha sar bhi

maroDi thi dum toD di thi kamar bhi

magar chand se jhuk ke dekha jo main ne

to dum is ki hilne lagi thi

ye kuchh rengne bhi laga tha

ye kuchh rengta kuchh ghisaTta hua

purane shiwale ki jaanib chala

jahan dudh is ko pilaya gaya

paDhe panditon ne kai mantar aise

ye kam-baKHt phir se jilaya gaya

shiwale se nikla wo phunkarta

rag-e-arz par Dank sa marta

baDha main ki ek bar phir sar kuchal dun

ise bhaari qadmon se apne masal dun

qarib ek viran masjid thi, masjid mein

ye ja chhupa

jahan is ko petrol se ghusl de kar

hasin ek tawiz gardan mein Dala gaya

hua jitna sadiyon mein insan buland

ye kuchh us se uncha uchhaala gaya

uchhal ke ye girja ki dahliz par ja gira

jahan is ko sone ki kechul pahnai gai

salib ek chandi ki sine pe us ke sajai gai

diya jis ne duniya ko paigham-e-amn

usi ke hayat-afrin nam par

use jang-bazi sikhai gai

bamon ka gulu-band gardan mein Dala

aur is dhaj se maidan mein us ko nikala

paDa us ka dharti pe saya

to dharti ki raftar rukne lagi

andhera andhera zamin se

falak tak andhera

jabin chand taron ki jhukne lagi

hui jab se science zar ki mutia

jo tha alam ka e'tibar uTh gaya

aur is sanp ko zindagi mil gai

ise hum ne zahhak ke bhaari kandhe pe dekha tha ek din

ye hindu nahin hai musalman nahin

ye donon ka maghz aur KHun chaTta hai

bane jab ye hindu musalman insan

usi din ye kam-baKHt mar jaega
