shabnam ke katron mein

shabnam ke katron mein kaise khiza ke rang jhalakte hain
phoolo ke chehro se kushboo ke moti bikharte hain,

hawao ki rawani se aati hai sargam kar rimjhim
jab pani ke lehron se voh atkheliya karti aati hai,

pairon ke kitaron mein phir thandak bansane aati hai
jab suraj se mil kar sham suneheri ho jati hai,

kuch mausam sapne lagte hain kuch mausam apne lagte hain
par dost mile tum jaisa to sub mausam sache lagte hain,

zindgi ki tanha lehron mein jo dosti ke moti pirote hain
voh phoolon ki traha dil ki rahon ko mehkate hain,
