aadhi aag aur aadha pani hum donon
jalti-bujhti ek kahani hum donon

mandir masjid girja-ghar aur guru-dwara
lafz kai hain ek maani hum donon

rup badal kar nam badal kar aate hain
fani ho kar bhi la-fani hum donon

gyani dhyani chatur siyani duniya mein
jite hain apni nadani hum donon

aadha aadha bant ke jite rahte hain
raunaq ho ya ho virani hum donon

nazar lage na apni jagmag duniya ko
karte rahte hain nigarani hum donon

khwabon ka ek nagar basa lete hain roz
aur ban jate hain sailani hum donon

tu sawan ki shokh ghata mein pyasa ban
chal karte hain kuchh man-mani hum donon

ik-duje ko roz sunate hain 'danish'
apni apni ram-kahani hum donon
