agar pamal rahon par qadam rakhne ki aadat khatm ho jae
masham-e-jaan mein khushbu ki bajae dard dar aae

visal aamada shah-rahon pe furqat ka basera ho
ek aisa waqt aa jae

jo tera ho na mera ho
mohabbat ki sunahri jhil par gham ki ghaneri raat chhai ho

kinaron par faqat nam-dida tanhai ki kai ho
chamakte paniyon par thartharaate aks kho jaen

ru-pahli dhup mein sarsabz pagdandi achanak zard pad jae
samundar ki namida ret par naqsh-e-qadam lahren nigal jaen

wo aankhen jin mein sat-range sajile khwab rahte hain
wahan aaseb bas jaen

jo donon samt se saya-fagan pedon tale bhi chilchilati dhup phaili ho
jahan har roz jaana ho

to raste ruth jate hain
