ab bhalaa chhoR ke ghar kyaa karte

shaam ke vaqt safar kyaa karte

terii masruufiyateN jaante the

apne aane kii Khabar kyaa karte

(masruufiyateN : engagements)

jab sitaare hii nahiiN mil paaye

le ke ham shams-o-qamar kyaa karte

(shams-o-qamar : Sun and the Moon)

vo musaafir hii khulii dhuup kaa thaa

saaye phailaa ke shajar kyaa karte

(shajar : tree)

Khaak hii avval-o-aaKhir thahrii

kar (?) ke zarre ko gauhar kyaa karte
