vahi phir mujhe yaad aane lage hain — Khumar Barabankavi

"bhule hain rafta rafta unhen muddaton men ham qiston men khud-kushi ka maza ham se puchhiye"

"suna hai hamen vo bhulane lage hain to kya ham unhen yaad aane lage hain"

"hairat hai tum ko dekh ke masjid men ai 'khumar' kya baat ho ga.i jo khuda yaad aa gaya"

"dusron par agar tabsira kijiye samne aa.ina rakh liya kijiye"

"ab in hudud men laaya hai intizar mujhe vo aa bhi jaa.en to aa.e na e'tibar mujhe"

"raat baaqi thi jab vo bichhDe the kaT ga.i umr raat baaqi hai"
