agar ham giit na gaate
hame.n ma.anii ma.aluum hai.n
us zindagii ke
jo ham guzaar rahe hai.n
un pattharo.n kaa vazn ma.aluum hai
jo hamaarii be-parvaa.ii se
un chiizo.n me.n tabdiil ho ga.e
jin kii KHuub-suuratii me.n
hamaarii zindagii ne ko.ii izaafa nahii.n kiyaa
ham ne apne dil ko
us vaqt
qurbaan-gaah par rakhe jaane vaale phuulo.n me.n
mahsuus kiyaa
jab ham
zaKHmii gho.Do.n ke juluus ke piichhe chal rahe the
shikast hamaaraa KHudaa hai
marne ke ba.ad ham usii kii parastish kare.nge
ham us shaKHs kii maut mare.nge
jis ne takliifo.n ke ba.ad dam to.Daa
zindagii kabhii na jaan saktii
ham us se kiyaa chaahte the
agar ham giit na gaate
hame.n ma.anii ma.aluum hai.n
us zindagii ke
jo ham guzaar rahe hai.n
un pattharo.n kaa vazn ma.aluum hai
jo hamaarii be-parvaa.ii se
