Aise to ko_ii jii ko banaataa nahii.n patthar,
bevajah to kabhii haath me.n aataa nahii.n patthar,

Darataa hai apanaa hii ghar zad me.n na aaye,
ek shaKhs andhere me.n chalaataa nahii.n patthar,

kuchh shiishaa_badan logo.n me.n tajviiz yahii thii,
diivaanaa tere shahar me.n khaataa nahii.n patthar,

ye baat mere dil ko lagii sab se bhalii baat,
diivaanaa divaane pe uThaataa nahii.n patthar.
