Mujhe kuchh yaad aata hai

tumhaare shahr ko chhoDe hue
ikkis din

ikkis raaten
aur kuchh parkar lamhe ho chuke hain

mere aamal-name par kisi be-jaan jazbe ka
aur adhura jism jalta hai

wahan jab din nikalta hai
wahan jab sham hoti hai

kisi ke wiloin jaise badan par
narm dhupon ke nikharte sae

apni surmai aankhon se
dukh ke rag gate hain

wahan jab raat hoti hai
mere andhe mashamon se

koi KHushbu nikal kar phail jati hai
mohabbat ke kisi shaffaf lamhe ka munawwar jism

meri be-karan tanhaiyon mein
jagmagata hai

mujhe kuchh yaad aata hai
