suraj sara shahr daraata rahta hai
pathrili sadkon pe dariya pyasa hai

nind hamari bhid mein hansti rahti hai
jangal apni khamoshi mein uljha hai

dharti aur aakash ki duniya mein jiwan
do tufanon mein qaidi kashti sa hai

hawa parindon ko le kar kis des gai
maidanon mein pedon ka sannata hai

raaton ki sargoshi banti hun 'anjum'
khwabon mein baadal sa udta rahta hai
