Mazarat

mere KHwab gharaunde mein mere sath hain

murda lamhon ke be rut basi calender

guzri kal ke bhige bhige se pachhtawe

aane wali kal ke be kal se andeshe

sukhe phulon ki Tahni par

patjhaD ke jhonkon se uDti be-ghar titli

pile patton ki murjhai bel se lipTi

sahmi chiDiya

is ki aankhon ke gahre viran samundar

kamre ke kone mein sanwari gungi guDiya

shelf mein rakkhi saji-sajai sard kitaben

rasta DhunDhti bhaTki bhaTki subhen shamen

KHud hi socho

aise pur-awaz hujum mein

aise ghar mein

tum ko la ke kahan biThaun
