phadphadata hua parinda hai
maan lo ki dua parinda hai
is kadi dhuup men mire hamrah
ret aansu hava parinda hai
khvahishon ka safar nahin rukta
ye ajab bhagta parinda hai
jhiil sukhi to vo palat aaya
dil ke hathon muda parinda hai
maut us ko kaho baja lekin
asl men to uda parinda hai
aane vaali bahar hai ‘babar’
meri chhat par ruka parinda hai
