hasrat-e-dil nikal bhi sakti hai
zindagi rukh badal bhi sakti hai

rut yakayak badal bhi sakti hai
shakh-e-ummid phal bhi sakti hai

guftugu lakh ho mohabbat ki
dusron ko wo khal bhi sakti hai

sham-e-umid bazm-e-hasti mein
bujh bhi sakti hai jal bhi sakti hai

apni tarikh chhod jae 'laiq'
ek hawa aisi chal bhi sakti hai
