Nirbhaya: A Poem for Change

Kal sabne status rakh ke

Apna shok jata dala. 

News channel walo ne

Details me pura crime dikha dala. 

Ab do char din 

Sab ki juban pe ye baat hogi

Jab tak koi aur nirbhaya

Wahshiyon ka shikar nahi hogi. 

Phirse wohi tamasha shuru ho jayega

Sabke status pe koi naya chehra nazar aayega, 

News channels details 'Acting' ke sathe dikhayenge

Phir sab shok dikha ke 

Apne kaam pe lag jayenge. 

Sab kahenge kya karna chahiye 'rapists' ke saath

Koi kahega jala do, latka do, 

Bum se uda do 

Nahi chahiye aisi aulaad. 

Ab dikhawa bass karo. 

'Victims' ka tamasha band karo. 

Lagta hai sab dikhawe me hi khush hai, 

Magarmach ke aansu dikhana band karo. 

Kyonki, 

Saalon bit gaye nirbhaya ko mare, 

Aaj bhi samaj wohi hai. 

'Rape' karne ke nuskhe TV pe dikhane se

Rapes kam honge nahi, 

Sirf 'Candle march' nikalne se

Badlaav ayega nahi. 

Badlaav ayega jab tum dikhave se upar uthake

Badloge khud ki soch ko, 

Jab loge zimmedaari izzat dene ki

Har Nirbhaya har Naziya ko. 

Jab tumhe lage koi behen mushkil me hai

Raksha karna tumhara farz hai, 

Chhedte dikhenge kuch log kabhi

Tab haath jale to jale.. Lado.. 

Ye tumhara farz hai.. 

Jab badlalo khudko, 

Jab doge izzat Har aurat ko, 

Tabhi tu ek mard hai

Tumhe Nirbhaya ka status rakhane ka haq hai..
