jitne wahshi hain chale jate hain sahra ki taraf
koi jata hi nahin khema-e-laila ki taraf

hum harifon ki tamanna mein mare jate hain
ungliyan uthne lagin dida-e-bina ki taraf

har taraf subh ne ek jal bichha rakkha hai
os ki bund kahan jati hai dariya ki taraf

hum bhi amrit ke talabgar rahe hain lekin
hath badh jate hain khud zahr-e-tamanna ki taraf
