Jin ke dil me rakhshindaa haiN ilhaami aayaat!!
Waqt ke bhari shaanoN pe wo rakh ke dekheN apna haath

Beej namak ke bone wale kheti meN masroof
Abke jaane kab tak thahre zakhmoN ki barsaat

Hum kya unki nazr kareN ab chehre pe aaNkheN hi nahi
Pahle dekar khush hote the ashkoN ki souGhat

Subh ka taRkaa hote hote uR jaate the lafzoN k sab rang
Jaag ke tujh ko khat likhte the aadhi aadhi raat

Aaj hua so hona tha (maiN ooNche ghar ki beti huN)
Dekho phir mat karna aisi waisi baat

Kitnaa garm lahoo hai apna duniyaa ko bhi dekhne deN
Rakhna hoNt pe hoNt aur dena haath me haath!!
