kaarwaan se jo bhi bichhda
gard-e-sahraa ho gaya
TuuT kar patte kab
apni shakh par waapas hue?
whoever got separated from the caravan
became the dust of the desert
when have fallen leaves
ever returned to their branch
ab ke ham bichhde to shaayad
kabhi khwabon mein milen
jis tarah sukhe hue phool
kitabon mein milen
as we part ways now, perhaps
we may meet again in our dreams
just as we find dried flowers
within the pages of an old book
