Gulzar
chalo naa bhaTake
lafa.nge kuucho.n me.n
luchchii galiyo.n ke
chowk dekhe.n
sunaa hai vo log
chuus kar jin ko vaqt ne
raaste.n me.n phe.nkaa tha
sab yahii.n aake bas gaye hai.n
yeh chhilake hai.n zindagii ke
in kaa ark nikaalo
ki zahar in kaa
tumhare jismo.n me.n
zahar palate hai.n
aur jitane vo maar degaa
chalo naa bhaTake
lafa.nge kuuch0.n mei.n
