The square and the Lane
With the hustle and bustle chain
Throughout the day and even in nights
Sundry mix of both sane and insane
Some would rush through to work
Some for no reason just lurk
Vibrant crosscutting of yells and cries
More of them reverberating nowhere from the skies
Some with a purpose to wander and saunter
Some with no reason abuzz and flaunted
Piercing beeps and loud hawker shrieks
Like a symphony with a typical cross-beat
That was Life the panorama it wore
On the streets alongside the Hydaspes memories I adore
muje le chalo uss nadhi ke kinarey
jahan mene apna bachpan khoya
Wo mandhir ki ganteyaan aur wo aarti ki goonj
Wo Jhelum ka kinara , wo classroom ki khidki
kabi naav se paar karna ya kabi taer kar jana
wo kagaz ke jahaz bana ke phenkna
wo gehray paani mein dubkiyan lagana
haste he rehna aur doston se ladna
ishq ke sislsilon mein beh jana
phir jawani mein ashq bahana
muje le chao uss nadhi ke kinarey
jahan mein apni jawani chod aaya -SK
