mere ganw mein mere ghar ke qarib
jhil hai ek khub-surat si

us ka shaffaf nilgun pani
kitna khamosh aur sakin hai

baith kar main kabhi kinare par
us ke pani mein phenk kar patthar

us mein halchal machata rahta hun
aur is waqt us ki wo halchal

dil ko kitna sukun deti hai
lekin afsos thodi der ke baad

khatm ho jata hai wo madd-o-jazr
aur main patthar talash karta hun

taki mach jae phir wahi halchal
main ne phenke hain is qadar patthar

ab to mushkil se koi milta hai
aur wo bhi badi talash ke baad
