baaten karne mein to duniya mein sabhi hoshyar the
sath dete mushkilon mein wo to bas do-chaar the

hum se jo karte rahe wade hamesha be-shumar
waqt padne par mukarne ko sada tayar the

zindagi ne hum ko di hain nematen yun to bahut
un ka sadupyog karne se hamin lachaar the

log jo apne faraez se rahe ghafil sada
mangte phir kis liye apne sabhi adhikar the

dete rahte the duhai jo hamesha pyar ki
pyar ki rahon mein wo ban kar khade diwar the

waqt-e-akhir koi aata hai kisi ke kaam kab
kaam aae jo mere wo mere hi upkar the

hain ajab dastur mere desh mein ye in dinon
ghar mein chori jo karen wo ghar ke pahre-dar the
