...The Mosquito King...

ek machhar...
machhar ek...
machhar tha wo ek tanashahi,
sab machharon ki thi usne lagai,
sab machhar the uske sipahi,
macha rakhi thi usne  tabahi.
ek machhar...
machhar ek...
machhar tha wo zalim bada hi,
machharon ka machhar tha wo bhai,
andhere raston ka tha wo rahi,
andhere kono mein usne jagah li.
ek machhar...
machhar ek...

jaisa bhi tha wo deewana
tha, khoon ka bada wo,
us machhar ki hai kahani ye,
phir ek baar sun lo.
machharon ki baadshaht,
aayi thi us par youn kyon?
kyon kisi ko nahi pata,
tha aisa machhar tha wo kyon?
/***/
chodo bhi ab us ki kahani,
zaroori nahi thi ye to sunani,
bas ek baat thi usne bhi mani,
maut badi thi uski hairani
~
ek machhar tha wo,
maut to thi usko bhi aani,
haathon tale kuchal ke,
bijli ke jhatke se jalke,
coil ke dhuen mein khans ke,
ya makdi ke jale mein phans ke,
mukti to ek din thi usko bhi pani.
par aise marna uska likha na tha,
uski maut ka zimmedaar tha pani,
pehla machhar tha wo jo duba tha,
tabhi yaad hai mujhe uski kahani.
