ha`nsi bhi aaye jo, aankhei`n to nam hi rehti hai`n
ye jheel jaisa samandar bhara sa rehta hai

jheel kehte hai`n wo aankho`n ko,unhe kya maloom
hamne aankho`n me samandar ko basaa rakha hai

honto`n pe aaine ke larazti hai tishnagi
aankho`n me aaina hai samandar liye hue

dard palko`n per hi hai thhehra hua
kya samandar aur bhi gehra hua?

uske honto`n ki sabhi khamoshia`n samjhi thhi mai`n
khushk aankho`n me samandar thhe niha`n ,samjhi thhi mai`n

mera vajood samandar me dhoondiye `kausar`
tamaam umr mai`n behti rahi nadi ki tarah

Poonam `kausar`
