mere shahar ne jab tere kadam chhue
sitaaron kee muthiyaan bharakar
aasamaan ne nichhaavar kar deen
dil ke ghaat par mela juda ,
jyoon raaten resham kee pariyaan
paant baandh kar aaee……
jab main tera geet likhane lagee
kaagaz ke oopar ubhar aaeen
kesar kee lakeeren
sooraj ne aaj mehandee gholee
hatheliyon par rang gaee,
hamaaree donon kee takadeeren
