nadiyā ne mujh se kahā mat aa mere paas
paanī se bujhtī nahīñ antarman kī pyaas
nadiya ne mujh se kaha mat aa mere pas
pani se bujhti nahin antarman ki pyas
sājan ham se mile bhī lekin aise mile ki haa.e
jaise sūkhe khet se bādal bin barse uḌ jaa.e
sajan hum se mile bhi lekin aise mile ki hae
jaise sukhe khet se baadal bin barse uD jae
