khwabon ka sailab nahin dekha jata
nind-nagar gharqab nahin dekha jata

jaane wale meri aankhen bhi le ja
in ko yun betab nahin dekha jata

itna kah kar ek shanawar dub gaya
afsurda girdab nahin dekha jata

jaane us ka chehra kaise dekhenge
jis ka nur-naqab nahin dekha jata

hum ne sara gulshan jalte dekha hai
tum se ek gulab nahin dekha jata
