puchhte hain ye shaeri kya hai
hae aisi bhi sadgi kya hai

kya kisi baghban se ye puchha
phul kya shai hai ye kali kya hai

ye saba kis bala ka nam hai aur
ye rida gul pe shabnami kya hai

fasl-e-gul se kabhi kiya daryaft
chaar su ye hari hari kya hai

puchh lete kabhi dhanak se ki ye
sat rangon ki sahiri kya hai
