MORE BYRaja Mehdi Ali Khan

    aa.e miyāñ ke dost to aate chale ga.e

    chhoTe se ek ghar meñ samāte chale ga.e

    vo qahqahe lage ki chhateñ ghar uḌ ga.iiñ

    buniyād saare ghar hilāte chale ga.e

    bakvās un sun ke shayātīn ro paḌe

    royā jo ek sab ko rulāte chale ga.e

    naukar ne aaj chaa.e ke dariyā bahā diye

    dariyā samundaroñ meñ samāte chale ga.e

    almāriyoñ meñ saham ga.e biskiToñ ke Tan

    chun chun ke ek ek ko khāte chale ga.e

    khāne chīzeñ nādir-o-nāyāb ho ga.iiñ

    dillī qatl-e-ām machāte chale ga.e

    sheroñ tarah TuuT paḌe aa ke mez par

    jo chiiz bhī milī vo chabāte chale ga.e

    jaise police-man pakaḌtā hai chor ko

    har shai pakaḌ ke peT meñ laate chale ga.e

    engine tarah muñh se ugalte rahe dhuāñ

    aur sigreToñ raakh girāte chale ga.e

    har samt pheñk pheñk ke māchis tīliyāñ

    kuuḌe farsh ghar meñ bichhāte chale ga.e

    kamre meñ ghūmte hue kīchaḌ-bhare vo boot

    qālīn ke nasīb jagāte chale ga.e

    dīvāroñ se Tike rahe chupḌe hue vo sar

    har naqsh-e-mā-sivā ko miTāte chale ga.e

    āvāzeñ ''āḳh thūḳh'' hotī rahīñ buland

    so.e hue guloñ ko jagāte chale ga.e

    koī kitāb apne Thikāne na rah sakī

    hindī ko fārsī meñ milāte chale ga.e

    aḳhbāroñ vo dhajjiyāñ bikhrīñ ki kyā kahūñ

    ab in se vo nigāh ke naate chale ga.e

    dīvāreñ vo nahīñ rahīñ vo dar nahīñ rahā

    jis ghar pe mujh ko naaz thā vo ghar nahīñ rahā

    aae miyan ke dost to aate chale gae

    chhoTe se ek ghar mein samate chale gae

    wo qahqahe lage ki chhaten ghar ki uD gain

    buniyaad sare ghar ki hilate chale gae

    bakwas un ki sun ke shayatin ro paDe

    roya jo ek sab ko rulate chale gae

    naukar ne aaj chae ke dariya baha diye

    dariya samundaron mein samate chale gae

    almariyon mein saham gae biskiTon ke Tan

    chun chun ke ek ek ko khate chale gae

    khane ki chizen nadir-o-nayab ho gain

    dilli ka qatl-e-am machate chale gae

    sheron ki tarah TuT paDe aa ke mez par

    jo chiz bhi mili wo chabaate chale gae

    jaise police-man pakaDta hai chor ko

    har shai pakaD ke peT mein late chale gae

    engine ki tarah munh se ugalte rahe dhuan

    aur sigreTon ki rakh giraate chale gae

    har samt phenk phenk ke machis ki tiliyan

    kuDe ka farsh ghar mein bichhate chale gae

    kamre mein ghumte hue kichaD-bhare wo boot

    qalin ke nasib jagate chale gae

    diwaron se Tike rahe chupDe hue wo sar

    har naqsh-e-ma-siwa ko miTate chale gae

    aawazen aaKH thuKH ki hoti rahin buland

    soe hue gulon ko jagate chale gae

    koi kitab apne Thikane na rah saki

    hindi ko farsi mein milate chale gae

    aKHbaron ki wo dhajjiyan bikhrin ki kya kahun

    ab in se wo nigah ke nate chale gae

    diwaren wo nahin rahin wo dar nahin raha

    jis ghar pe mujh ko naz tha wo ghar nahin raha
