kalnk

imtahaan men inhen mile jyaadaa kal ank the
kaun jaanataa thaa ki ye mere maathe ke kalnk the

inake hee aage-peechhe ham ghoomate bhatakate the
'raajaa betaa, raajaa betaa' kahate naheen thakate the
aaj ye kahate hain ki 'maan-baap mere rnk the'
kaun jaanataa thaa …

ye thokate hain salaam roj kisee karodapati 'bila' ko
par kabhee bhee chukaa n sake mere daaktaron ke bil ko
safaaee men kahate hain ki 'haath mere tng the'
kaun jaanataa thaa …

unchaa hain ohadaa aur achchhaa khaasaa kamaate hain
khushahaal nazar magar bahut hee kam aate hain
kis kadar ye hnsate the jab ghoomate nng-dhadng the
kaun jaanataa thaa …

chaar kamare kaa ghar hai aur tees saal kaa karz
jisakee gulaamee men bali chadaa die apane saare farz
guzar gaee kaee deevaalee par kabhee n vo sng the
kaun jaanataa thaa …

dekh rahaa hoon ravaiyaa inakaa gin gin kar maheenon se
koee ummeed naheen bachee hai ab in karamaheenon se
jab ye ghar se nikale the tab hee sapane hue bhng the
kaun jaanataa thaa …

jo dekhate hain bachche vahee seekhate hain bachche
main hotaa agar achchhaa to hote ye bhee achchhe
budhaape kee laathee men shaayad boe mainne hee dnk the
kaun jaanataa thaa …
