khiDki andhi ho chuki hai
khiḌkī andhī ho chukī hai
dhuul kī chādar meñ apnā muñh chhupā.e
kaalī saḌkeñ so chukī haiñ
dhuup kī nañgī chuḌeloñ ke sulagte qahqahoñ se
jā-ba-jā peḌoñ ke saa.e jal rahe haiñ
mez par gul-dān meñ hañste hue phūloñ se
mīThe lams kī ḳhushbū kā jharnā bah rahā hai
ek saaya ā.īñe ke kaan meñ kuchh kah rahā hai
ahd-e-rafta kī gilahrī
ḳhūb-sūrat dum uThā.e
roTī ke TukḌe ko dāñtoñ meñ dabā.e bhāgtī hai
ek makḌī
maġhribī kone meñ jaalā bun rahī hai
shahr ḳhālī ho rahā hai
kyā tum apnī zindagī se mutma.in ho?
haañ... nahīñ huuñ
ḳhair jaane do... suno
masjid kā vo būḌhā mo.azzin
ḳhair kī jānib bulātā hai tumheñ
apnā ġham kis se kaheñ
khiDki andhi ho chuki hai
dhul ki chadar mein apna munh chhupae
kali saDken so chuki hain
dhup ki nangi chuDelon ke sulagte qahqahon se
ja-ba-ja peDon ke sae jal rahe hain
mez par gul-dan mein hanste hue phulon se
miThe lams ki KHushbu ka jharna bah raha hai
ek saya aaine ke kan mein kuchh kah raha hai
ahd-e-rafta ki gilahri
KHub-surat dum uThae
roTi ke TukDe ko danton mein dabae bhagti hai
ek makDi
maghribi kone mein jala bun rahi hai
shahr KHali ho raha hai
kya tum apni zindagi se mutmain ho?
han nahin hun
KHair jaane do suno
masjid ka wo buDha moazzin
KHair ki jaanib bulata hai tumhein
apna gham kis se kahen
- Book : Hashr ki subh darakhshaz ho (Pg. 144)
