Bachpan Ki Kuch Yaadein

tractor se ganne churaata bachpan
uss chote shahar mein hi choot gaya
sadak kinare nahar ka swimming pool
patharon ke baandh sang toot gaya

kaagaz aur rubberband se udaate rocket,
sookhe kache aam chatt se churaate
samose-jalebi se sunday ka naashta
fir aaraam se tubewell jaake nahaate

icepice ki boundary ko leke bahas
sardi ke andheron mein shawl sang dhak gayi
saare dost bhi bade ho gaye
ek kadi wahin yaad sang atak gayi

garam garam chai pathar ke choolhe pe
do scooter, ek commander aur hum sab
nadi wali picnic chalte hain phir se
chalo na, bahut saal huye, saath milte hain phir se
