Zindagiya chali gai, par dil se ranzishe na gai,
Muhabbat par zamane ki, bandishe na gai,

Waqt ne badal daale karwaan kai,
Par kuch se raahe bhi badli na gai,

Nafrato ki aag me julas kar bhi bar bar,
Vo ek bar bhi fir muhabbat se milne na gai,

Zindagi aasan nahi hai, maloom hai sabhi ko,
Magar kuch se to ye galatfahmi bhi pali na gai,

Apni muhabbat ke pairokar the jo bade shor se,
Hizr ki tanhaiya bhi unse sambhali na gai,

Pakad kar hath mera umar bhar ke liye chod diya,
Mahaz ek azmaish bhi unse sath tali na gai...
