Dustbin

subh ke jag-mag suraj ko
sham ke naranji baadal mein

kyun gahnati ho
wo kya andesha hai

jis ke baDhte qadmon ki dhamak suni
aur tum ne apne aansu apne andar gira liye

apni ruh mein nauhe jama kiye
aur nisyan ki dustbin mein phenk diye

wo kaun sa mujrim dard hai
jis ko dil ke shab-KHanon mein chhupae

jis ke nadida shoalon se nazar jalae
baiThi ho

chor zehn ke
pichhle shelf pe

tah karke mujhe mat rakkho
mujh se jaan chhuDani ho to

mujhe shuur ke shish-mahal mein zinda karo;
mujhe zinda karo

mere hone ka iqrar karo
meri taqat se inkar karo

mujhe maro;;
