ये शहर
वो शहर
हमारा शहर
उनका शहर
बातें वही
अलफ़ाज़ नए
जज़्बात वही
इरादे नए
कुछ किस्सों की शुरुआत
कुछ अफसानों के अंत
जी नहीं ?
जी हाँ

जब छुक छुक बातें होती हैं
जब छुक छुक बातें होती हैं
जब दुनिया कुछ कुछ कहती है
जब ठंडी -ठंडी तेज़ हवा
चेहरे पर फर्र-फर्र पड़ती है
जब कोई कहीं चिल्लाता है
और गाली कहीं से पड़ती है
जब केहुनी की ठोकर से
वह आगे -पीछे खिसकती है
जब सीट की बूकिंग होती है
हर इंच की गिनती होती है
जब कहते कहते थक जाओ
एक सूत भी ना वह सरकती हैं
जब चर्चगेट से चढ़ती हूँ
और जोगेश्वरी उतरती हूँ
इस बीच यह बातें होती हैं
जब दुनिया कुछ कुछ कहती है
जब दुनिया कुछ कुछ कहती है
जब ठंडी -ठंडी तेज़ हवा
चेहरे पर फर्र-फर्र पड़ती है
जब कोई कहीं चिल्लाता है
और गाली कहीं से पड़ती है
जब केहुनी की ठोकर से
वह आगे -पीछे खिसकती है
जब सीट की बूकिंग होती है
हर इंच की गिनती होती है
जब कहते कहते थक जाओ
एक सूत भी ना वह सरकती हैं
जब चर्चगेट से चढ़ती हूँ
और जोगेश्वरी उतरती हूँ
इस बीच यह बातें होती हैं
जब दुनिया कुछ कुछ कहती है

Eid Mubarak!
Eid hai ji Eid hai!
Gale lagaane ki Eid
Eidi dene-lene ki Eid
Biryani-sheerqorma khaane ki Eid
Hum ek hain yeh jataane ke Eid
Safed poshaakon main Khilte logon ko ki Eid,
Timtimaate-jhilmilaate dupatton main saji aurto ko dekhne ki Eid
din bhar chahal pahal chalne ki Eid
Jo beet gaya use bhool jaane ki Eid
Ek Nayi Shuruat Ki Eid
Ek naye Mauke ki Eid
Koi na bulaaye to khud hi Eid manaane ki Eid!
Eid Mubarak!!!

Colaba kahan jaaogi?
Colaba, taj ke peechhe
Nariman point se yahan bhaag kar aaya, to colaba ki savari mil gayi
Ji?
Nariman point se aaya hoon, colaba ki savari mil gayi, who bhi who aage waala tumko jawab de diya, warna usime jaati
ji
Wahin naukri karti ho?
Ji
Hotel main?
Nahin who drawing ki gallery hoti hai na wahan, taja ke peechhe hi hai.
Achha, likhayi parhayi ka tumhara kaam hai?
Ji
Yahan to dono wakat ko kaam karma hi parta hai
Ji ji
Kahan se aati ho?
Main? Goergaon
Oh ho ho, badi door se, o baba, bada risk ka zindagi hai bambai
Woh to hai
Mehnat bina yahan kuchh hai hi nahin, mehnat karo tab bhi kam hi milta hai.
Sahi baat hai
Yahan to aurat mard dono ko kaam karma partaa hai
Ji, aur aurat ke kaam na karne ka koi kaaran bhi to nahin hai yahan, saari sahooliyatein hain
Haan, aur koi raat main aane jaane main koi kya kar lega. Zyaada se zyaada koi ladki hogi to chhedkhaani karega, us se zyaada who kuchh nahin kar sakta.
Aare bhai timepass karna hota hai un sabko aur kuchh nahin. Arre who hai, kisis ki hai to hai, tum kyun apna waqt barbad karte ho.
Aur pehnaava bambayi ka aisa khaas hai. Kapde itne chust hote hain , ki badan par fabte hain, to ladke bolte hain, ohhhh kya cheez hai!!!!
Kitne bachche hain tumhare?
Arre, meri abhi shaadi nahin huyi hai
Bura mat man na, aise hi main pooch diya. Shaadi kar lo. Umar ho gayi hai. Har cheez ki ek umar hoti hai. Sahi waqt par shaadi bhi ho jaani chahiye
Sahi baat hai, lekin ghar bhi to hona chahiye na
Arre to jis se shaadi karogi kya uske ghar nahin hoga? Bhagwaan ka diya tumhare maa-baap ke paas itna nahin ki tumhe apne hi ghar main rakh lein. Shaadi ka ghar se kya tallukh? Shaadi kar lo beta. Aur phir bas yahi das-barah saal hain jawani ke, Phir to bas jhinni bajaate rehna.
App kahan ke hain
Main Lucknow ka. Arre aaj mil gaye hain, kal nahin milenge.
Woh to main 4 mahine se yahan aa rahi hoo, roz taxi leti hoo, kabhi dubara wahi taxi nahin mili hai.
Yahan to bhai waisa hi hai.
Lucknow ghoomne ka mera bahut man hai
Zaroor aao, lucknow bahut khoobsoorat jagah hai. Wahan bhed bhav nahin nahin. Aur boli itni achhi ki wahan ek baar jaaogi to man nahin karega aane ka. Yahn ki to boli hi ulti hai.
Bas yahan right se le lijiye
To shaadi kar lo, phir jaao ghoomne, lekin shauhar jaane dega?
Usko saath le loongi. Saath jaanyege
Haan sahi baat hai, saath jaana. Parahyi khatam ho gayi hai, naukri bhi kar rahi ho, bas apni pasad ka ladka bhi dhoondh lo.
Yahin rok dijiye, aage poora jam hai.
Nahin saaf ho raha hai, ab yahan tak aa gaye to pahuncha hi deta hoon.
Bas yahain left main lagaa dijiye
Chalo, apna khayal rakhna. Shaadi kar lena beta, bas jawani kid as baraah saal aur. Umar hoti jaa rahi hai na.

Paper Bag
Ek tha paper bag
Badaa, mazboot, tikaoo
Badaa, mazboot, tikaoo
Chamki waala
Man ko rijhane waala
Man ko rijhaane waala
Tan jaata tha
wazan barh jaane par
tan jaata tha
magar inkar nahin karta tha
toot nahin jaata tha
toot ta nahin tha
ek gulabi feeta tha usmein
aur ek haraa
ek gulaabi, ek haraa, chamki waala
dono feete mazbooti se lage the
bag jab banaa tha
tab se usmein jude the
tab se usmein jude the dono
sirf ek feeta pakadne par bag nahin uth tat ha
waise uth to jaata tha
samaan gira deta tha
saaman gira deta tha
isliye dono feete saath main pakadne hote the
dono feete pakadne parte the
saath main pakadne parte the
ek tha paper bag
badaa, mazboot, tikaoo
chamki waala
gulabi-hara feetedaar

Naya Saal Hoga Kuchh Behtar
Is kavita ka pehla hissa maine March 2008 ki main, Lahore main likha tha. Kavita khatm nahin huyi thi. Mumbai wapas aayi. Saal khatm hote-hote India-Pakistan ke beech kuchh-kuchh behtar ho rahe rishte phir gadbada gaye. 29 December 2008 ko is kavita ka doosra hissa likha gaya.

Naya saal hoga kuchh behtar
Socha tha hum sab ne
Dar, udaasi ko chhod aaye hain
Socha tha hum sab ne
Bin mauke koi shahid na hoga
Maut aam baat na hogi
Socha tha hum sab ne
Ghoomenge befikr Liberty
Tootenge nahin darvaaze, khidkiyan aur dil
hostel nahin banega qaidkhaana
Socha tha hum sab ne
"Dar ki koi baat nahin hai, main theek hoon!"
Aaye din yeh sandesh na denge
Socha tha hum sab ne
Dar lekar na ghar jaayenge
Socha tha hum sab ne
29.12.08
Ghar aa gaye us mulk se hum
Pakistan jise naam mila
Hindustan ki sar-zameen par bhi
Phoonkte -phoonkte paunv rakha
Alag mausam aur naya saal tha
yahan bhi lekin wahi haal tha
Wahi khwahishein phir se jaagi
Kyunki phir dil darwaaze toote
Dar phailaa hai har hisse main
Naya saal kuchh aisa beeta
29.12.09
Ghar aa gaye us mulk se hum
Pakistan jise naam mila
Ek din use bhi ghar bolenge
Socha tha hum sab ne
Aasaan wahan jaana hoga
Mazzedaar kisi ko wahan se bulana hoga
Hum bhi keh sakenge
"Hamaare Lahore main aisa hota hai
Hamaare Karachi main waisa hota hai"
Naya saal bhi khatm hua hai
achhe bure kayi kisse lekar
Takreer karne waalon se aao poochhein
"Mann ka kolahal kya kam tha
yudhhon ki jo shuruat karoge?"
