....

Tum apne aap
me ek sheher ho;

Tumhaare aage
peeche duniya ghoomti hai;

apne haathon pe
tumne mandir bana rakhe hain,

tumhaare sar pe
ek aasman sa dikhta hai;

kuch paudhe tumhaare
paanw ke paas ruke hai...

ek nadi jo tumhaare
beech se hokar guzarti hai
usi ke kinaare mai rehta hoon;

?

mai ek ummeed hoon
dil me basi huyi

mai ek chah hoon
mai ek raah hoon

mai hoon raasta
mai muqaam hoon

teri rooh hoon
teri jaan hoon

mai hoon qaayda
ek tarqeeb hoon

mai hi wajah hoon
mere hone ka...

mai parinda hoon,
ki mai khushboo hoon

mai awaaz hoon
ke zubaan hoon

meri pehchaan kya hai
ye bata na tu

mai jo bolunga
wo tu sun to le

mai aasman hoon
mai zameen hoon,

mai zaahir hoon
tu mujhe jaan le

phir poochhna
ki mai kaun tha..?

Aawargi

kuch tumhara udhar tha mujh par

chand alfaaz reh gaye the

jo shayad ghalti se mere
paas chhod gaye the tum

kal tak apne paraaye ka
farq nahi samjhte the tum

shayad is wajah se aaj tak
mujhe yaqeen nahi hua

ki tum mere apne nahi the...

laut.ti daak se bhijwa denge
wo sab kuch jise dekh kar

meri awaargi thi badh chali...
