Gata hua patthar

dariya kuchh nahin
us ke jal ki miThas kuchh nahin

us ki machhliyan aur us ka biphrao kuchh nahin
main jab ek gata hua patthar us mein phenkta hun

to dariya ek git ban jata hai
jo apne utar chaDhao aur biphrao mein

zindagi se kam pur-shor nahin
aur zindagi ka yahi shor dariya hai

yahi machhli yahi machhera
yahi miTha jal

aur yahi shairi hai
