Subah ke hain yaaron 'paanch' baje
Karoon kya mujhe kuchh na soojhe
Neend to khair pahle bhi mujhe kab aati thi
teen baje kkp ke bhajanon ki jo dhun aati thi
Main good night bolta tha vo good morning
Bhajan bhi aise jaise hon mourning.
Par phir bhi mein so leta tha.
Kisi ke khyalon mein kho leta tha.
(Oh, ye wala sentence bas rhyming ke liye tha)
Aaj hua jaane kya
Neend ka nahin naamo-nishaan
Aur na yahoo na gTalk pe koi
Kya bhala saari duniya soi..
Na koi blogging ke liye idea mila
Orkut bhi pahle waala na raha..
Uski pics bhi accessible nahin
Duniya mein nyaY bacha hi nahin.
(There's no justice left in the world.)
Kuchh barking kuchh cawing suni beech beech mein
Psycho padosi (the non-kkp one) bhi dikha ghoomta neend mein
Ab bombay jaayega to jayega Maximum City jaroor padhkar
aur haan, aajkal khush hai khud ko psychic samajhkar
Aur uske saamne ke room wale ki life se hai movies ke alaawa sab gone
(Fearing a defamation suit,
the observation that rhymed with the above is withdrawn.)
Aur ek gaya tha lab mein aaj aadhi raat ko
Padhai ka bukhar chadhaa kayi saal baad, Yo!
(Bakiyon ke baare mein kal baat karenge, ok! Good morning/night.)

haha...very.interesting..a perfect night-time commentary,
:D
Dopahar mein 2 baje utha hoon, so you might see a sequel to it tomorrow!
haha. somehow all poetic sensibilities own the night...Firaq always comes to mind on such insomnia
Hahahaha! I've read a non-serious shayeri here for the first time! Nightime does bring out the best poet/writer/whatever in each one of us I reckon.
"Padhai ka bukhar chadhaa kayi saal baad, Yo!"
Hahahahahha! I loved the rapper style "yo". :D
By the way, if you're picking up Maximum City, check out Shantaram and Sacred Games too. Somebody recently told me that it's called the Bombay Trilogy. I'm yet to pick up Maximum City but Shantaram and Sacred Games are amazing.
[Siyaah]
Yes, the night and the poetry are good buddies. Haven't read Firaq yet. I think I should, soon.
[Drenched]
Yeah, haven't written many! But it reminds me of the last stanza of the one I posted on May 27 last year. Go check!
Hahaha! Yo!
I'll borrow Maximum City from this friend (the Psycho Padosi, jo kabhi kabhi mera blog bhi padh leta hai), once he has read it. But Shantaram I've read, and I agree: It's one awesome book. (It was the only time in my life I fell for a fictional woman: Karla)
Good one!
lol @ "Uski pics bhi accessible nahin
Duniya mein nyaY bacha hi nahin."
Orkut seriously has robbed all the fun by introducing all this privacy crap.
Ab to duniya hansne bhi lagi hai meri bechaargi par! No justice left :D
The pic policy is more or less fine, but I really don't understand the 'restrict who can add scraps' feature. Recently, somebody scraped me and I couldn't even reply back! (Not before adding him.) WTF! Kaise kaise log hote hain!
