Jakhma kurede gaye 
chhand nahi bandh paye 
sama gujarta raha 
ashko ka jam lekar 
maykhana ro pada 
geeto mei cheekh utha 
dard ka afsana 
kbra mei Pakija soti rahi 
andheri raat hoti rahi 
registan mei gujarta raha karavan 
jindagi ki chah mei 
jindagi ki rah mei 
dhalta hua suraj 
chhupa ja raha tha 
jamin aasman ka 
milan ka najara dekh 
nai jindagi ki chah lekar 
girate padte 
uthate  sambhalate 
chalta raja
chalti rahi jindagi 
jawar ke saath 
uthata raha 
bhate ke saath girata tha 
chand tak pahuchane li
asafal koshish mei 
chur chur hota raha 
chatano se takrakar 
jhilmilate hue 
haste hue sitaro ka 
gujarta raha karavan 

Yado ke taranjum 
ke sahare 
tinake ko sahara mila 
yau laga dubate ko
kinara mila 
tuti hui patwar se 
kheta raha kashti ko 
tufano mei girata raha 
par terata raha 
kisi ki chah mei 
kashti bhi chhut gai 
baju se samudra ke 
sine mei machhaliyo 
ka gujarata raha karanva 

Chalte chalte gir pada 
utha na saka 
fir bhi chalta raha 
sitaro se dur kanhi 
kisi ki khoj mei 
jivan ki naiya chhod 
gubar ko hridya mei 
dafna kar 
kanhi se andhere mein 
roshni ka bhul mein 
gujarata raha karanva 
--------- Translation -------------

   Surging Convoy 

Wounds scratched 
rhymes couldn't be composed 
time fleeting 
goblet full of tears 
wept whole pub 
screamed in songs 
story of agony 
in grave chaste lady was sleeping 
dark night was passing 
surging convoy in desert....

In longin to live 
in course of life 
setting sun 
was hiding in sky 
saw scene of union 
of earth and sky in horizon 
longing to live new life 
falling and falling 
rising and holding 
was roaming 
life was going 

with tide 
rose up 
with low tide fell 
to reach moon 
in failure attempt 
tired and fatigued 
collided against cliffs 
twinkling 
smiling stars 
surging convoy of stars...

trail of memories 
and their support 
felt like drowning 
arrived bank 
with broken oar 
was sailing boat 
felling in storms 
but was swimming gradually 
in longing of someone 
lost boat 
lost oar 
beside me in ocean 
school of fish 
like convoy was surging 
in ocean 

while roaming fell 
couldn't rise up 
despite was walking 
remote beyond galaxy 
of stars 
in search of some one 
left boat of life 
clouds of dust and smoke 
in heart 
buried there 
was wandering 
from some where in dark 
by mistake beams of light 
moving like convoy of illumination.
