तू प्यार का सागर है,
तेरी एक बूँद के प्यासे हम
लौटा जो दिया तूने, चले जायेंगे जहां से हम
घायल मन का पागल पंछी उड़ने को बेकरार
पंख हैं कोमल, आँख है धुंदली, जाना है सागर पार
अब तू ही इसे समझा, राह भूले थे कहाँ से हम
इधर झूम के गाए जिन्दगी, उधर है मौत खडी
कोई क्या जाने कहाँ है सीमा, उलझन आन पडी
कानों में ज़रा कह दे के आए कौन दिशा से हम
