shaKH mein sabza dhup mein saya wapas aaya
kaun hun kyun zinda hun sochta rahta hun
kaisa tara TuTa mujh mein
dil-tang hun makan ke andar paDa hua
nind jab KHwab ko pukarti hai
miTTi se kuchh KHwab ugane aaya hun
main rakh hota gaya aur charagh jalta raha
dua ka phul paDa rah gaya hai thaali mein
kabhi hans kar kabhi aansu baha kar dekh leta hun
pichhe muD ke dekhna achchha laga
raat kinara dariya din
meri aankhon ko meri shakl dikha de koi
sahil ki ret chand ke munh par na Daliye
gharon mein sabza chhaton par gul-e-sahab liye
purani miTTi se paikar naya banaun koi
