Udte baadal, buzurgon ki shafqat bane, dhoop mein ladkiyan muskurati rahin
Jab se jana ki ab koi manzil nahin manzilen raah mein ati jati rahin
Raat, pariyan, farishtey, hamara badan mangkar barf meinjal rahe they megar
Kuchh shabihein, kitabon key bujhte diye, kaghazi maqbaron meinjalati rahin
Saare din ki tapi sahili ret par do tadapti huyi machhliyan so gayin
Apne milne ki wo akhiri shaam thi lahren ati rahin lahren jati rahin
Nange paon farishton ka ek taifa aasman se zamin par utarne laga
Sar barehna falak zadiyan arsh se aansuon key sitare girati rahin
Ek dareeche do mein ansuon ka safar raat ke raston ki tarah kho gaya
Nann mitti pe girti huyi pattiyan soney walon ko chadar chadhati rahin
