diye abhi nahin jale
darakht badhti tirgi mein chhup chale

parind qafilon mein dhal ke ud chale
hawa hazar marg-e-arzu ka ek gham liye

chali pahadiyon ki samt rukh kiye
khule samundaron pe kashtiyon ke baadban khule

sawad-e-shahr ke khandar
gae dinon ki khushbuon se bhar gae

akeli khwab-gah mein
kisi hasin-nigah mein

alam mein lipti chahaten warud-e-shab se jag uthin
hai dil ko bekali siyah raat aaegi

jilau mein dukh ki lag ko liye hue
nagar nagar pe chhaegi
