har ek nazar ho husn-e-nazar ai dost ye aisa khel nahin
jalwe ka nazara khel bhi hai jalwe ka nazara khel nahin

ek umr gulon ke sae mein guzri to samajh mein baat aai
gulshan ki faza mein kanton se daman ka bachana khel nahin

tu ishq ke gham ko ai waiz apna gham-e-isyan samjha hai
ye teri samajh se bahar hai is gham ka samajhna khel nahin

ye kaam badi jurat ka hai ye baat badi himmat ki hai
khud apna nasheman apne hi hathon se jalana khel nahin

kuchh dil hi hamara waqif hai jo hum pe musibat padti hai
mahaul-e-mukhalif mein rah kar haq apna jatana khel nahin

jis waqt nigahen un se milin kuchh kahte sunte ban na padi
ehsas-e-tamanna aasan hai tafsir-e-tamanna khel nahin

ai dost hamari tarah zara himmat ki zarurat hoti hai
maikhane mein badh kar saqi se nazron ka milana khel nahin

duniya pe kabhi hum hanste the ab hum pe ye duniya hansti hai
auron ka tamasha khel sahi khud apna tamasha khel nahin

kuchh sar ki yahan takhsis nahin hai dil ki zarurat 'sajid' ko
sajde ki to manzil aur hai kuchh sajde ka irada khel nahin
