hansna rona pana khona marna jina pani par

kaghaz pa harf harf nikhar jaana chahiye

mulahiza ho meri bhi uDan pinjre mein

wo shakl wo shanaKHt wo paikar ki aarzu

nadi ka kya hai jidhar chahe us Dagar jae

na dhup dhup rahe aur na saya saya to

kise jaana kahan hai munhasir hota hai is par bhi

kabhi to Dub chale hum kabhi ubharte hue

wahm hi hoga magar rose kahan hota hai

uDa ke phir wahi gard-o-ghubar pahle sa

gutthi na sulajh pai go suljhai bahut hai

waqt kar de na paemal mujhe
