mai samajhta nahi

koi aaya nahi
koi peeche gaya nahi
koi mila nahi
koi bichdaa nahi

haspatal khaali, koi beemar nahi
koi maraa nahi
vyaapaar pe taala nahi
koi berozgaar nahi

godown bhare, koi bhookha nahi
sadke khaali, koi chala nahi
hausle buland, koi thaka nahi
jeete sabhi, koi haara nahi

economy me mandi nahi
godi me media nahi
phekne ki koi seema nahi
raaste pe encounter nahi

roshni me sab clear hai
bas mujhe dikhta nahi,
sab theek hai, changa hai,
bas mai samajhta nahi
