Khushwant’s Train To Pakistan Poem by Bijay Kant Dubey

Khushwant Singh
On the train to Pakistan
Going uninvited
And the Samjhauta Express
Taking to,
Hearing the talks
And smiling thereon
On the one hand
While on the other
There going on
Quawwallis,
Thumris and ghazals
And mushairas
In compartment to compartment.

Mr.Singh
Though uninvited,
But as a writer,
One of Train to Pakistan,
Taking the liberty of,
Being a Lahorian
Going to,
Boarding the train,
Hearing
Quwwallis,
Ghazals and thumris
And mushairasas
To his entertainment
And entertaining others too
With his fillips,
Wit and humour,
Cracking jokes.
