"Ammi, vo jo padosi hain, unka munnu

Rang-birange kapde pahna karta hai.

Sab usko kandhe pe bithhaya karte hain,

Jaane kyon vah sab ko pyara lagta hai.

Ammi, apne mohalle ke logon ko kyon

pyar bahut hai rang-birange kapdon se?

Maine to munnu ko nanga dekha hai

Ammi, uska jism bhi mere jaisa hai!"      (Bimal Krishan 'Ashk')
