hum rajdhani mein baithkar likhne wale log nahin the

hum ghutnon tak kichaD mein dhanse log the

hum dhanropni karte hue likh rahe the kawita

gehun ki bhuri baliyon ko dekh sihar uthte the

usi waqt ankhon ke kor se Dhulak aati thi kawita

sarson ke pile phool dekhkar

hamne pahli prem kawita ka swad jana

jangli phulon ne kawitaon ko sugandhit kiya

kanton mein sawadhani se unhen sthapit hona sikhaya

hum lakDi ke chulhe par pakne wale bhat the

hum degchi mein sijhne wali dal the

hum aag par pakaye gaye ha

alu, mirch aur ek chutki namak the

hum mahajan ki di gali the

hamare liye koi manch nahin tha

manch ke niche hamare liye

kabhi koi kursi nahin lagai gai thi

hum pankti ke akhir mein khaDe hokar

sabhy, shalin, saliqedar kawiyon se

mazduron, daliton, shoshiton par kawitayen sun rahe the

hum jeth ki dupahri mein tapne wale log the

hum ashaDh ki barish mein bhigne wale log the

hum dan khairat mein aaye log the

hamare hisse ka sukh sokh liya gaya tha

hum dukhon ke pichhe bhagte dhawak the

hamare mathe par pahli pankti mayassar nahin thi

hum panktiyon ke akhir mein khaDe hone wale log the

hum asabhy aur ashisht log the

hamein tan bhar kapDa ji bhar khana kabhi nahin mila

mile chithDon par hum roz kawitayen likh rahe the

hum do june ki roti muhaiya karte karte

kawitayen likh rahe the

ek bail ke mare jane par

unki jagah khet jotne wale log the

hum lagatar kheton mein khaDe ho hokar

kawitayen likh rahe the

ab kawitayen pak chuki hain

we sansad pahunchne ke liye taiyar hain

hum rajdhani mein baithkar likhne wale log nahin the

hum ghutnon tak kichaD mein dhanse log the

hum dhanropni karte hue likh rahe the kawita

gehun ki bhuri baliyon ko dekh sihar uthte the
