main samundar ko chhanti hun
jab suraj bahut tez chamakta hai

sara namak bah jata hai
mere pas bacha rahta hai sirf pani

aur mujhe tairna nahin aata
mausiqi ke shor ke darmiyan

raqs ke kisi khamosh waqfe mein
tum meri taraf jhukte ho

ek surkh bosa liye
mere honton par tumhaara zaiqa

phail jata hai aur tumhaara lams
coke ke gilas par chipka rah jata hai

aadhi raat ko
jalti aankhon ki raushni mein

main mohabbat se bhigi nazmen likhti hun
jab subh hoti hai

mohabbat kahin kho jati hai aur nazm rah jati hai
koi nazm mohabbat ke baghair safar kaise kar sakti hai
