do ghadi un ke han guzar aae
ishq ki aaqibat sanwar aae

har nafas ek naya tasadum hai
waqt thahre to kuchh qarar aae

kuchh to ho ahl-e-dil ki duniya mein
mai mile ya kahin bahaar aae

apna anjam-e-zist kya hoga
hum agar maut ko bhi haar aae

thak chuki hai shua-e-shams-e-kuhan
raushni ka naya manar aae

hum azal se rawan the su-e-adam
rah mein apne hi mazar aae

har jagah zist kar-farma hai
hashr tak maut ko pukar aae

thahra radd-e-amal bhi ek amal
waqt laute to bar bar aae
