guzarne ko to 'shaariq' apni har aalam mein guzri hai
wahi hai zindagi lekin jo un ke gham mein guzri hai

wo uftad-e-khizan ho ya bahaaron ki junun-khezi
qayamat hai pe sach puchho to har mausam mein guzri hai

wo koi aur honge khwahish-e-amn-o-sukun wale
yahan to umr sari kawish-e-paiham mein guzri hai

na puchh ai ham-nashin kya sanahe guzre mohabbat mein
use kuchh dil samajhta hai ki jis aalam mein guzri hai

mujhe jaise do-alam mil gae jab mil gai 'shaariq'
wo ek saat mohabbat ki jo us ke gham mein guzri hai
