Ek laDki

gulab chehre pe muskurahaT
chamakti aankhon mein shoKH jazbe

wo jab bhi college ki siDhiyon se
saheliyon ko liye utarti

to aise lagta tha jaise dil mein utar rahi ho
kuchh is tayaqqun se baat karti thi jaise duniya

usi ki aankhon se dekhti ho
wo apne raste mein dil bichhati hui nigahon se hans ke kahti

tumhaare jaise bahut se laDkon se main ye baaten
bahut se barson se sun rahi hun

main sahilon ki hawa hun nile samundaron ke liye bani hun
wo sahilon ki hawa si laDki

jo rah chalti to aise lagta tha jaise dil mein utar rahi ho
wo kal mili to usi tarah thi

chamakti aankhon mein shoKH jazbe gulab chehre pe muskurahaT
ki jaise chandi pighal rahi ho

magar jo boli to us ke lahje mein wo thakan thi
ki jaise sadiyon se dasht-e-zulmat mein chal rahi ho
