wo ek panchwati ka wishaal sa jangal
jugon jugon se jahan ek ahilya ki shila

tabah-kar siyah-fal bad-dua ka sila
buri tarah se hai apne sharab mein pagal

kabhi ye sochta hai sang-o-khisht ka paikar
khud us ki tarah na har rahguzar pathra jae

wo lauh-e-harf-e-muqaddar bhi jis pe dhundla jae
na jaane kitni sadi tak rahegi khak-basar

is aas par take jata hai dida-e-be-nur
kabhi to pighlega ye sang-e-intizar aakhir

kabhi to ram ki thokar ka hoga gun zahir
kabhi to hoga rag-e-sang mein lahu ka zuhur

magar najat-dahinda abhi nahin aaya
hazar sal hain darkar dida-war ke liye

janam janam ke hain chakkar nae safar ke liye
na jaane 'indra' chalega ki ram aaega
