jab annuson ki baarish bhi na thanda kar saki dil,
itni aag lagi thi, kabse lagi thi,
to ek jwalamukhi poochhaney laga
kya is tarah koi aag thandi hui hai, jitna tadpogey,
utni yeh aur sulagi hai,
kya karta, chup chap baarish thami, aur hawa chali
kuchh badal bikhrey aur kuchh ghul gayey kaaley aakash mein
lekin kuchh baar baar mujhey sapno mein nazar aatey hain,
thoda dhamkatey hain, aur phir muhn maud aagey bad jaatey hain
