Sawal

hum apne KHwab-e-KHush-fahmi se uTThe
bahut shadan-o-farhan

chale duniya ki jaanib mol karne ko
hamari jeb mein mehr-o-wafa iKHlas aur sachchai hai

lekin
yahan bazar mein sab log kahte hain

badal kar rah gai hai ab currency is zamane ki
tumhaare pas to jo kuchh bhi hai

be-kar raddi hai
ki ab waqat nahin hai koi jis ki

yahan to ab faqat
makr-o-fareb aur jhuT ka sikka chalega

agar ye pas hai
to sari duniya hai tumhaari

hamari sadgi par
ek zamana hans raha hai

jise dekho tajjub se yahi wo puchhta hai
kahan tum ab talak soe hue the

ki duniya is qadar tabdil hone ki KHabar tum tak nahin pahunchi
nahin malum ye kya majra hai

wagarna hum to sunte aae the ab tak
ki jo ek arsa mahw-e-KHwab rahte hain

kisi behtar zamane mein uTha karte hain
lekin

hamare sath ye kya ho gaya hai
