Listen while reading
Suna Pada Dekha,
Heard, fell, seen,
Faada Khaaya Fenka,
Torn, devoured, thrown,
Ghula Mila Behka,
Dissolved, mingled, intoxicated,
Gala Jala Mehka.
Throat burnt, perfumed.


Daak Jis Patey Ka,
The mail of that address,
Jahaz Jis Sateh Ka,
The ship of that surface,
Raaj Jis Samay Ka,
The secret of that time,
Vichaar Ek Vijyeta,
A thought, a victor,
Kumhaar Ek Racheta,
A potter, a creator,
Malaal Ek Ghade Kaa.
A regret of a single moment.


Hai Ched Jo Risega,
If there’s a crack that will leak
Iss Ret Ki Zameen Pe,
On this land of sand,
Wo Boond Kya Karega?
What can that drop do?
Wo Gum Sa Lagega.
It will feel like lost.


Mai Ret Ka Ek Kann,
I, a single grain of sand,
Wo Juwe Ki Ek Fadd,
He, a fold of the gambler,
Hum Dono Hai Amar,
We both are immortal,
Koi Vishwas Kya Karega?
Who will dare to believe?


Dhundhne Se Milta Hai Khuda?
Does one find God by searching?
Kab Kaha Khuda Ne Ye?
When did God ever say that?
Waqt Laga Chudane Mai,
Time was spent in breaking free,
Kayarta Chupane Mai,
In hiding cowardice,
Kayarta Kal Aane Mai.
In cowardice arriving tomorrow.


Dabdaba Dararo Mai,
Pressure in the cracks,
Har Jagah Hazaaro Mai,
In thousands everywhere,
Khoon Laga Khazano Mai,
Blood-stained in the treasures,
Boonde Hai Sirhano Mai.
Drops lie on the pillows.


Aab Jeeke Kya Karega?
Now what will you do by living?
Jeetey Ji Jo Kara,
Whatever was done while alive,
Wo Kya Karam Mai Judega?
How will that merge into destiny?
Abb Jeeke Kya Karega.
Now what will you do by living.


Kaafi Baar Mann Sahe Khuda Ki Maar,
Many times the heart endured God’s blows,
Raakhi Baandh Mann Kahe – Ye Dhaaga Hai.
Tying the rakhi, the heart says—this is the thread.
Paalti Maar Mann, Kaha Lejata Hai?
The heart flips, where is it taking me?
Agli Baar – Dil Ka Jhootha Wada Hai.
Next time—the heart’s false promise.


Tumse Mila,
Met you,
Tumne Kaha,
You spoke,
Tumne Suna.
You listened.


Bahar Ek Awaaz,
Outside, a voice,
Khaali Makaan,
An empty house,
Gulaabi Diwar,
A pink wall,
Hawa Ki Cheekh,
The scream of the wind,
Roshni Gul,
Light extinguished,
Bijlee Ki Taar – Hui Seene Ke Paar Mere.
The wire of lightning—pierced right through my chest.


Saare Din Ek Jese,
All days alike,
Saare Jan Ek Jese.
All people the same.
Taara Jo Tut Gaya,
The star that fell,
Duwa Mai Ghum Rehte.
Lives on in prayer’s sorrow.


Milti Ko Ghar Kehte,
What we find, we call home,
Gharo Mai Kam Rehte.
Yet seldom stay in homes.
Satya Ko Dard Kehte,
Truth we call pain,
Pathhar Ko Mard Kehte.
Stone we call man.


Atti Bhi Bimari Hai,
Excess is illness too,
Nashe Mai Jawani Hai.
Youth is in intoxication.
Dikkatein Aasan Nhi Hai,
Troubles aren’t easy,
Mazze Mai Saza Bhi Hai.
Pleasure hides punishment too.


Aab Jeeke Kya Karega?
Now what will you do by living?
Jeetey Ji Jo Kara,
Whatever was done while alive,
Wo Kya Karam Mai Judega?
How will that merge into destiny?
Abb Jeeke Kya Karega.
Now what will you do by living.

सुना पड़ा देखा
फाड़ा खाया फेंका
घुला मिला बहका
गला जला महका

डाक जिस पते का
जहाज़ जिस सतह का
राज़ जिस समय का
विचार एक विजेता
कुम्हार एक रचयिता
मलाल एक घड़े का

है छेद जो रिसेगा
इस रेत की ज़मीन पे
वो बूंद क्या करेगा
वो गुम सा लगेगा

मैं रेत का एक कण
वो जुए की एक फड़
हम दोनों हैं अमर
कोई विश्वास क्या करेगा

ढूँढने से मिलता है खुदा
कब कहा खुदा ने ये
वक़्त लगा छुड़ाने में
कायरता छुपाने में
कायरता कल आने में

दबदबा दरारों में
हर जगह हज़ारों में
खून लगा ख़ज़ानों में
बूँदें हैं सिरहानों में

अब जी के क्या करेगा
जीते जी जो करा
वो क्या करम में जुड़ेगा
अब जी के क्या करेगा

काफ़ी बार मन सहे खुदा की मार
राखी बांध मन कहे ये धागा है
पालती मार मन कहाँ ले जाता है
अगली बार दिल का झूठा वादा है

तुमसे मिला
तुमने कहा
तुमने सुना

बाहर एक आवाज़
ख़ाली मकान
गुलाबी दीवार
हवा की चीख़
रौशनी गुल
बिजली की तार हुई सीने के पार मेरे

सारे दिन एक जैसे
सारे जन एक जैसे
तारा जो टूट गया
दुआ में ग़म रहते

मिलती को घर कहते
घरों में कम रहते
सत्य को दर्द कहते
पत्थर को मर्द कहते

अति भी बीमारी है
नशे में जवानी है
दिक्कतें आसान नहीं हैं
मज़े में सज़ा भी है

अब जी के क्या करेगा
जीते जी जो करा
वो क्या करम में जुड़ेगा
अब जी के क्या करेगा
