Ek Purani Kahani

kisi shahr mein ek kafan-chor aaya

jo raaton ko qabron mein suraKH kar ke

tan-e-kushtagan se kafan khinch leta

aaKHir-e-kar pakDa gaya

aur us ko munasib saza ho gai

kuchh hi din baad ek dusra chor warid hua

jo kafan bhi churaata

qabr ko bhi khula chhoD deta

dusra chor bhi rukn-e-insaf ke pas laya gaya

aur mehman-e-zindan hua

phir yakayak kisi tisare chor ka ghul macha

jo kafan bhi churaata

qabr ko bhi khula chhoD deta

aur murda badan ko barahana kisi rah par Dal deta

shahr wale jab use adalat mein lae

to qazi ne us ki saza ko sunate hue

faisla yun likha

KHudawand pahle kafan-chor ko apni rahmat mein rakhna ki wo aadmi KHub tha
