har khushi ranj-o-gham pe war aae
jitne qarze the sab utar aae

kha ke har war apne sine pe
rah-o-rasm-e-wafa sanwar aae

kaun dekhe badalte mausam ko
kab khizan aae kab bahaar aae

aankhen khushiyon se bhigti hain zarur
jab koi bhula gham-gusar aae

zindagani ka kuchh bharosa nahin
kaun jaane kahan pukar aae

samjho be-kar guzra mah-e-siyam
nekiyon mein na gar nikhaar aae

us ki bakhshish pe zinda hain warna
kab gunahon ka kuchh shumar aae

aisi kuchh rah ustuwar karen
nazr-e-'sadiq' bhi kuchh guzar aae
