..us shakhs ke bachchon ki taraf dekh liyaa tha!....

dhansati huyee kabron ki taraf dekh liyaa tha;
maan baap ke chehron ki taraf dekh liyaa tha.
daulat se mohabbat to nahi thi mujhe lekin;
..bachchon ne khilonon ki taraf dekh liyaa tha!
us din se bahut tez hawaa chalne lagi hai;
bas maine chiraagon ki taraf dekh liyaa tha.
ab tumko bulandi kabhi achchhi na lagegi;
kyon khaaknasheenon ki taraf dekh liyaa tha.
talwaar to kya.. meri nazar tak nahi utthi;
..us shakhs ke bachchon ki taraf dekh liyaa tha!....
