satwin bar
askandariya ke nile sahil par
us ne apni did ka sunahra sikka
mere kanon ke kashkol mein
dan kiya
askandariya
jise ek bahadur jang-ju ne
aabaad kiya tha
jo
hanste baste shahron ke nam
barbaadi ke sandese likhta tha
us ka nasib
buDhe mallah ki bosida kashti se bandha
hachkole le raha tha
duniya ka nasib likhne wale
us ke sanwle hathon mein
shumali misr ke sarsabz baghon ke
awwalin phal the
jise wo
boTo shahar ke
sab se qadim darul-istiKHara ko
bhenT karne aai thi
