Dil me ek ajib si bechaini hai,

Chehre par kabhi na khatm hone wali udasi hai.

Jitna v sambhal kar kuchh karta hun,

Utna hi bhuktan bharta hun.

Dil ki shanty k liye,

 sab par ilzam lagata hun,

dil to pareshan ho uthta hai,

jab khud paar v ilzam nai laga pata hun.

Ankhe to rote rote such chuki hai.

Par khud ki galtiyon ko na dund pane par

Ye sukhi ankhe v dub jati hai.

Har pal ek lachari mahsus karta hun,

Himmat to tut jati hai,

Jab ek baisakhi v nai dund pata hun.

Bechaini to bad jati hai tab aur v dil ki,

Jab kisi ko karan v nai bata pata rone ki.

Jagah jagah talash karta hun santi man ki,

Dar to yah soch kar lagta hai,

Kahi ye talash khatm na ho bad mere maut ki…
