    sunā karte the ab tak

    regzāroñ meñ kahīñ bhī duur tak

    paanī nahīñ miltā

    magar ik baar jab ham

    ret ke jalte hue zarroñ pe nange paañv chal kar

    lahū barsāte sūraj se nigāheñ chaar karte

    paañv meñ chhāle sajā.e

    paanī ke chand ek qatre DhūñDte

    qadam aage baḌhā.e rahe the

    lahū tez baḌhtī gardisheñ

    maddham se maddham-tar hotī rahī thiiñ

    zindagī mādūm hotī rahī thiiñ

    achānak hairatoñ meñ Duub kar ham ne ye dekhā

    ik baḌī jaadū bharī jhiil hai

    jis meñ ki tā-hadd-e-nazar

    qaus-o-quzah ke rang bikhre haiñ

    ubhartī Dūbtī lahreñ

    baḌā jaadū jagātī raqs kartī

    nāchtī lahreñ

    samundar sabz lahreñ nīlgūñ lahreñ

    safed aur champa.ī lahreñ

    aur un ke bhī sivā

    baḌī siyāh gahrī surmagīñ lahreñ

    jhiil lahroñ jaadū

    ruuh ko sarshār kartā rahā

    ziist ke ġham mudāvā ban gayā

    kināre baiTh kar

    us jhiil ke paanī meñ ham ne der tak jhāñkā

    ḳhud apne aap se milte rahe

    ḳhud apne aap ko pahchānñe koshish karte rahe

    suna karte the ab tak

    regzaron mein kahin bhi dur tak

    pani nahin milta

    magar ek bar jab hum

    ret ke jalte hue zarron pe nange panw chal kar

    lahu barsate suraj se nigahen chaar karte

    panw mein chhaale sajae

    pani ke chand ek qatre DhunDte

    qadam aage baDhae ja rahe the

    lahu ki tez baDhti gardishen

    maddham se maddham-tar hi hoti ja rahi thin

    zindagi madum hoti ja rahi thin

    achanak hairaton mein Dub kar hum ne ye dekha

    ek baDi jadu bhari si jhil hai

    jis mein ki ta-hadd-e-nazar

    qaus-o-quzah ke rang bikhre hain

    ubharti Dubti lahren

    baDa jadu jagati raqs karti

    nachti lahren

    samundar sabz lahren nilgun lahren

    safed aur champai lahren

    aur un ke bhi siwa

    baDi hi siyah gahri surmagin lahren

    jhil ki lahron ka jadu

    ruh ko sarshaar sa karta raha

    zist ke gham ka mudawa ban gaya

    kinare baiTh kar

    us jhil ke pani mein hum ne der tak jhanka

    KHud apne aap se milte rahe

    KHud apne aap ko pahchanne ki koshish karte rahe
