udne ki chhah mein,
har roz hi girna,
fir uthna,sambhalna,
aur aage badhna.
toote pankhon ka faila yahan ambaar dekhkar,
mein thak gaya hoon ab khawab dekhkar.
syahi me ghulti umr sari,
goongi kitabon me simattii duniya hamari.
chhoote gaye mujhse bahut se mere apne.
hoti lambi unki,
 har roz, kataar dekhkar
mein thak gaya hoon ab khawab dekhkar.
sookhe patton si zindgi,
aur mashaalon sa dil.
uthte yahan dhunye ke roz gubaar,
bas yahi nazara,
 harbar dekhkar.
mein thak gaya hoon ab khawab dekhkar

thodha thakki,
adhjagi,adhsoyi,
idhar udhar,
kuch dhoondhti,
uljhano mein khoi.
ek raat,ek roz,
kuch yun,
mere kamre mein roi,
na keheti kuch,
na chup bhi reheti.
sugbughatein,kabhi
to kabhi siskiyan.
kuch kehene ki chhah,
par vedna ki bediyan.
kuch kabhi sochti,
fir soch se vo joojhti.
moond aankh ko,
sheesh haath mein dabochti.
pair chhati me simate,
vo nayanno se lad padi.
baandh jo toota magar,
to chandni bhi bhe gayi
namak neer ho gaya.
megh bhi bifar pada,
raat ki karuna mein vo,
toot ke baras pada.
zaar zaar vo hui,
taar taar vo hui.
aansu aansu chhan gaye,
os os ban gaye.
kuch is tarah giri nisha,
ke gir ke jo bhikhar gayi.
lalima prabhat ki  bhi,
 aur surkh ho gayi.

an endless con,
keeps on begetting
veiling the obvious,
its the lies,
you start believing.
oh, the travails of,
the heart.
all you thought,
you were,
is just an elaborate farce
in a prison were you born,
with no prospects of escape.
engrossed in the vaudeville,
you were chained to your fate.
burden of your being
you carry on your back
but you mustnt for a moment,
pause or relax.
you should keep on churning,
never skipping a beat
for the dance of destiny
depends upon this feat.
