har ghadi imtihan lete hain
sath dil ke wo jaan lete hain

kar guzarte hain ek din aakhir
dil mein 'ashiq jo than lete hain

ek ishaara nazar se hota hai
jaanne wale jaan lete hain

'aql se kuchh salah hoti hai
phir kaha dil ka man lete hain

roz kis sadgi se ye gul-ru
bhul karte hain man lete hain

aankh to ai 'sada' nahin lagti
yunhi chadar si tan lete hain
