ai hawa izn-e-safar de baadban
muntazir hain raston ke darmiyan

ab nazar mein dasht ki waq’at nahin
aankh mein phaila hua hai aasman

ab kahan par tolne ki aarzu
ab to main hun aur mera aashiyan

jag uttha hun magar aankhon mein hai
nind ka ehsas khwabon ka dhuan

main jahan ke samne phailaun hath
aur tu khamosh patthar ki zaban
