aawaz ke patthar jo kabhi ghar mein gire hain
aaseb khamoshi ke 'saba' chikh pade hain

pazeb ke naghmon ki wo rut bit chuki hai
ab sukhe hue patte is aangan mein pade hain

chhup jaen kahin aa ki bahut tez hai barish
ye mere tere jism to mitti ke bane hain

is dil ki hari shakh pe jo phul khile the
lamhon ki hatheli pe wo murjha ke gire hain

is ghar mein kise dete ho ab ja ke sadaen
wo haare thake log to ab so bhi chuke hain
