duur kahin
koyal ki ku-ku guunj rahi hai
niil gagan pe kaale badal dol rahe hain
aur kheton men pagli pavan
hare-bhare makke ke mukh ko chuum rahi hai
ik ashiq jo mahbuba se bichhad gaya hai
unchi faslon baans ke jhundon men vo us ko dhund raha hai
kaash ki mera gaanv ho aisa
mahbuba bhi aisi ho
rang-birangi titliyan ud kar jis ka pata batati huun
