pahadon ki bulandi par khada hun
zamin walon ko chhota lag raha hun

har ek raste pe khud ko dhundhta hun
main apne aap se bichhda hua hun

bhare shahron mein dil darne laga tha
ab aa kar jangalon mein bas gaya hun

tu hi markaz hai meri zindagi ka
tere atraf misl-e-daera hun

ujale jab se katrane lage hain
siyah-raaton ka sathi ban gaya hun

marahim shakl kab ka mar chuka hai
mujhe mat chhediye main dusra hun
