EHSAAN QURAISI
Ek din, main Delhi pahuncha,
Station pe ek coolie se bahar jane ka rasta pooncha.
Coolie ne kaha: "Bahar jaake poocho."
> Maine khud hi rasta dhundh liya,
> Bahar jaake taxiwale se pooncha:
> "Bhai saab Lal Kile ka kitna loge?"
> Jawab mila: "Bechna nahi hai."
>
> Taxi chod, maine bus pakad li,
> Conductor se pooncha: "Ji, kya mein cigarette pi sakta hoon?"
> Wo gurrra kar bola: "Hargiz nahi, yaha cigarette pina mana hai."
> Maine kaha: "Par wo janab to pi rahe hai!"
> Phir se gurrrraya: "Usne mujhse pooncha nahi hai."
>
> Lal Kile pahucha, hotel gaya.
> Manager se kaha: "Mujhe room chahiye, satvi manzil pe."
> Manager ne kaha: "Rahane ke liye ya koodne ke liye?"
> Room pahucha, waiter se kaha : "Ek paani ka gilas milega?"
> Usne jawab diya: "Nahi sahab, yahan to saare kanch ke milte hain."

> Hotel se nikla, dost ke ghar jaane ke liye,
> Raste me ek sahab se pooncha:

> Janab hans kar bole: "Peechle bees saal se dekh rahan hoon,
> Yahi padi hai... kahin nahin jaati."

> "Areeee sunti ho, inhe jara apna chalis saal purana aachar to dikhana."
> Bhabiji ek baatli me rakha aachar le aayi.
> Maine bhi apnapan dikhate hue bhabiji se kaha:
> "Bhabhiji, aachar sirf dikhayengi, chakhayengi nahi?"

> Dost ne jawab diya: "Bambai gayi hai, degree lene ke liye."
