havaa aur daravaaj़on men bahas hotee rahee,
deevaaren sunatee raheen.
dhoop chupachaap ek kurasee par baiThee
kiraNon ke oon kaa sveTar bunatee rahee.
sahasaa kisee baat par bigaD़ kar
havaa ne daravaaj़e ko taD़ se
ek thappaD़ jaD़ diyaa !
khiD़kiyaa(n) garaj uTheen,
akh़baar uTh kar khaD़aa ho gayaa,
kitaaben mu(n)h baaye dekhatee raheen,
paanee se bharee suraahee pharsh par TooT paD़ee,
mej़ ke haath se k़lam chhooT paD़ee.
dhoop uThee aur binaa kuchh kahe
kamare se baahar chalee gaee.
shaam ko lauTee to dekhaa
ek kuharaam ke baad ghar men kh़aamoshee thee.
a(n)gaD़aaee lekar pala(n)g par paD़ gaee,
paD़e-paD़e kuchh sochatee rahee,
sochate-sochate n jaane kab so gaee,
aa(n)kh khulee to dekhaa subah ho gaee.
