KaTegaa dekhiye din jaane kis azaab ke saath
ki aaj dhuup nahiiN niklii aaftaab ke saath

to phir bataao samandar sadaa ko kyuuN sunte
hamaarii pyaas kaa rishta thaa jab saraab ke saath
(saraab=mirage)

baDii ajiib mahak saath le ke aaii hai
nasiim raat basar kii kisii gulaab ke saath

fizaa meN duur tak marhabaa ke naare haiN
guzarne vaale haiN kuchh log yaaN se Khwaab ke saath

zamiiN terii kashish khiiNchtii rahii hamko
gaye zaruur the kuchh duur maahtaab ke saath
