Nanhi si kali, maa baba ke aagan khili..
Titli si udti udti apne pankh se
Naa jane kab pari ban gayi..
Aaya mor aisa jeevan mein ke
Mamta ki murat si lagne lagi..
Waqt ke haathon se naa jane
Kab meri zindagi takrai ke main
Hal ki tarah apne jevan ke
Khet mein chalti girti sambhalti rahi..
Bhoj tha itna bari karmon ka ke
Uthate uthate sar pe
Chehre pe zuriyaan nazar aayi..
Ladti girti samay ke haathon se
Apni kismat ki ladai..
Halat se ek thaki si zandgi,
Khamosh ulhji si nazar aayi..
Eik nanhi si pari ki, kismat ki
lakeerein
Aaj buddi amma ke chehre pe nazar aayi..
