samaat-e-munjamid ke malik
samaaton par jumud ho to

dinon ko hafton mein dhaalne ka nahin koi mashghala
ba-juz ye ki wadiyon mein sada ki duri pe bajne wale

suhane sapnon ke dhol sunna
rafu-gar-e-daman-e-tamanna

har ek dhadkan pe dil mein ek tis si na utthe
har ek harakat pe aablon mein mari hui sans ji na utthe

kisi ki aawaz-e-pa se dam todti hui zindagi na utthe
koi pukare koi na utthe

to jhil-ankhon kanwal se chehron ko bhulne ka
koi tariqa nahin

ba-juz ye ki sahilon par purane sipon ke khol chunna
rafu-gar-e-daman-e-tamanna

agar kabhi aablon ki sansen bahaal hon to
lahu se ruton ke jal bunna

samaat-e-munjamid ke malik
samaaton se jo barf sar ke

nadi ke giton ke bol sunna
