dil-e-tabah ho khandan nahin to kuchh bhi nahin
khizan mein rang-e-bahaaran nahin to kuchh bhi nahin

wo dil jo nam-e-mohabbat pe muskuraata hai
harif-e-gardish-e-dauran nahin to kuchh bhi nahin

ye karb-o-ah ki duniya ajib duniya hai
agar hayat ghazal-khwan nahin to kuchh bhi nahin

jahan ki khak jo chhane koi to kya hasil
tawaf-e-kucha-e-jaanan nahin to kuchh bhi nahin

zamana lakh taraqqi kiya kare lekin
dilon mein azmat-e-insan nahin to kuchh bhi nahin
