hai vahii kashtii puraani hai vahii dariyaa meraa
jis pe tu aane na paaya hai vahii rastaa meraa

le gaya hai kohkan jis roz se tesha meraa

naav bacchon ne banaya faad kar safha meraa
us nazar ko khwahishon ka shauq de meraa khyaalus jabeen ko raushni deta rahe bosa meraa
main musalsal band karta hooñ magar phir dam-b-dam
yaad uski kholti jaati hai darwaaza meraa
