Rang dikh lati hai kia kia umr ki raftar bhi

munkashif hote kaha hein ishq k asar bhi

be-khbar ae they hum sb ba-khbar ho k chaley

km bhala kb ho ski hai wakt ki raftar bhi

mot k zinda’n mai hai keid ye zindagi

afkar bhi izhar bhi ikrar bhi inkar bhi

jeetey ji martey rahey or mar k jeena bhi pra

azmatey hein kis kis trah wakt k ozar bhi

gulshaney mehr-o-wfa k phool they murjha gae

jism o ja’n be-zrar hein or rooh hai be-zar bhi

mot ki ankhon mai ankhein dal k jeena hiyaat

jawida’n kirdar hai ye jawida’n shoar bhi

kaim o daim hai fkat wakt ka behta lahu

fani zmeen-o-asma’n zindgi asar bhi
