Apne sard kamre mein

Main udas baithi hun

Nim-wa darichon se

Nam hawaen aati hain

Mere jism ko chhu kar

Aag si lagati hain

Tera nam le le kar

Mujh ko gudgudati hain

Kash mere par hote

Tere pas uD aati

Kash main hawa hoti

Tujh ko chhu ke lauT aati

Main nahin magar kuchh bhi

Sang dil riwajon ke

Aahani hisaron mein

Umr-qaid ki mulzim

Sirf ek laDki hun!
