Ye dastoor-e-zamana badal dena chahiye
Koshishon ko bhi nateejon sa tawajjo mile

Kya hi karein koi jab daulat ibaadat ban jaaye
Gurbat makkari aur shauhrat sharafat ban jaaye

Dusaron se nahi khud se hi hue hai pareshaan
Kya dawa iski jab mohabbat nafarat ban jaaye

Na jaane kyaa ab khud mein dhundhta hu
Sukoon-e-jahaan khud mein dhundhta hu

Aaya hu duniya mein vajd ki talaash mein
Har taraf dekha ab khud mein dhundhta hu

Na dailat mein hai na hai shauhrat mein
Sab kama ke dekha ab khud mein dhundhta hu

Na sharafat mein milta hai na insaaniyat mein
Sab kar ke dekha ab khud mein dhundhta hu

Raah-e-hayaat par bas ye ek hi usool rakha kijiye
Zamane ke liye uljhane khud ke liye sukoon rakha kijiye

Waqt guzarta hai jaise ret fisalti hai hathon se
Kuch haasil ho karna to uska junoon rakha kijiye

Manzil karib aate hi daudna chhod dete hain
Hum bade hote hi padhna chhod dete hain

Kuch to bhool karte hai hum jo dost nhi bante
Kyun talluq ache hote hi milna chhod dete hain

Apni fitrat se badnaam koi kyun karein aitbaar
Fateh mil jaate hi sach bolna chhod dete hain

Dil ko kaha aaraam aayega jab shab-e-gham ki baat hogi
Yun hi haal-e-dil bayaan hoga aur phir yun hi raat hogi

Har baat ko kal par taalte aaye ho tum har martaba
Do din baad qayamat ka din hai phir nhi mulaqaat hogi

-

Charcha meri jeet ka sar-e-aam raat chalein
Parvaaz meri dekh ke aasmaan saath chalein

Asar meri baaton ka ab kuch aisa bhi ho
Jab main chaloon to karwaan saath chalein

Fikr hain tumhari ye har baar kyun jatana padta hai
Laazmee hai ishq tumse ye bhi batana padta hai

Naaraz ho jaati ho zara si baat par tum baar baar
Riwaaz-e-zamane ke khatir tumhe satana padta hai

Salamat hai ishq tumhara mere dil mein yun hamesha
Har baar tumhe ye yakeen kyun dilaana padta hai

Humare rishte ke hum dono hi hai nakhuda
Ek rooth jaaye to dusre ko use manana padta hai

Zubaan par har waqt naam tera ho ye nhi jaroori
Bure waqt mein ek dusre ka sath nibhana padta hai

Mujh ko ro dena ab kuch acha sa lagta hai
Dard ko paani bana kar acha sa lagta hai

Haalat kharab hai kuch aur der hai ye raat
Subah ko yaad karta hu to acha sa lagta hai

Shayad nhi hu main kaabil ab iss shohrat ke
Koshish karta hu banane ki to acha sa lagta hai

Yakeen ho to nazaarein badalte der nhi lagti
Yun khud ko tasalli dena acha sa lagta hai

Safar-e-zindagi ke anjaam ki fikr ab kyun ho
Tu hum-safar hai soch kar acha sa lagta hai

Kabhi kabhi khamoshi se ikraar kiya jata hai
Humare yaha bin kahe hi pyaar kiya jata hai
