ज़ान फ़रज़ान की नज़्म: जगह

Khacha-khach yaatriyon se wo bhari bus

Jab ik stop par pahunchi

Ruki aahista se aur phir

Badi mushkil se darwaaza khula us ka

The jitne log baahar muntazir the sab usi bus ke

Magar wo log andar hi nahin aae

Aur aate bhi wo kaise hi ki andar to

Khade hone ki koi jagah baaqi thi

Na koi seat khaali thi jahaan par baithta koi

Aur upar se jo andar log the chilla rahe the

Ki andar koi mat aana nahin hai yaan jagah bilkul

Magar ik aadmi kuchh yun tha be-parwa

Laga kahne pakad kar bus ka darwaaza

Are thoda sarak jaao jagah to khoob hai andar

Aur aisa kahte hi jabran wo ghus aaya

Badi dikkat hui sab ko magar wo aadmi khush tha

Ki kam-az-kam jagah to mil gai us ko

Magar phir agle hi stop par jab bus ruki phir se

Khula phir se wo darwaaza

Aur is baar aur mushkil se

To jitne log andar the wo phir is baar chillaae

Ki andar koi mat aana nahin hai yaan jagah bilkul

Aur ab wo aadmi bhi saath mein chilla raha tha

Wahi ik aadmi jo pichhle hi stop par jabran

Sabhi logon ke chillaane se be-parwa

Jagah ki khoj mein andar ghus aaya tha
