ek diye ne sadiyon kya kya dekha hai batlae kaun
chhodo agle waqton ke qisse phir se dohrae kaun

ab bhi khadi hai soch mein dubi ujyalon ka dan liye
aaj bhi rekha par hai rawan sita ko samjhae kaun

apna apna aasan chhod ke har murat uth aai hai
sone ki diwaron mein rah kar pathar kahlae kaun

jis ne diye ki kalak ko bhi mathe ka sindur kiya
apne ghar ki us diwar se apna bhed chhupae kaun

jaane kitne raaz khulen jis din chehron ki rakh dhule
lekin sadhu-santon ko dukh de kar pap kamae kaun

ek naya sapna banta hai aur ban kar is soch mein hai
sadiyon se aapas mein uljhe dhagon ko suljhae kaun

ab bhi buzurgon ki baaten sun kar achchha to lagta hai
par in girti diwaron se apni pith lagae kaun
