dard-e-dil la-dawa nahin hota
han magar hausla nahin hota

gham khushi rang zindagi ke hain
raat bin din naya nahin hota

raushni se chhupate hain chehre
jab andhera zara nahin hota

chand yaaden hain kuchh jawan sochen
kaun tanha sada nahin hota

thahre pani to gadle hote hain
kyun kahun wo juda nahin hota

rahte hain ek ghar mein hi lekin
muddaton samna nahin hota

muskuraun to sab 'umar' hamdam
gham mein ek aashna nahin hota
