aankh se duur na ho dil se utar jaayegaa
vaqt kaa kyaa hai guzarataa hai guzar jaayegaa

itanaa maanuus na ho khilvat-e-gam se apanii
tuu kabhii khud ko bhii dekhegaa to dar jaayegaa

tum sar-e-raah-e-vafaa dekhate rah jaaoge
aur vo baam-e-rafaaqat se utar jaayegaa

zindagii terii ataa hai to ye jaanevaalaa
terii bakhshiish terii dahaliiz pe dhar jaayegaa

duubate duubate kashtii to ochhaalaa de duu.n
mai.n nahii.n ko_ii to saahil pe utar jaayegaa

zabt laazim hai magar dukh hai qayaamat kaa 'faraz'
zaalim ab ke bhii na royegaa to mar jaayegaa
