insani darinde aur is aasani se mar jaen

insani darinde aur is aasani se mar jaen
ye sochne baithen to pareshani se mar jaen
wo jin ko mayassar thi har ek chiz-e-digar bhi
mumkin hai suhulat ki farawani se mar jaen


kashti pe the kashti ko jalate hue hazraat
ab aag se bach jaen bhale pani se mar jaen
aaine ka ye kaun sa session hai hamein kya
diwar ko takte hue hairani se mar jaen


'babar' koi jazbaati kronon se ye puchhe
kis khate mein hum aap ki nadani se mar jaen
ai dost mukammal nazar-andaz hi kar dekh
aisa na ho hum nim nigahbani se mar jaen


bach jaen to aakhir kise kya farq padega
dushman na sahi dost pashemani se mar jaen
aankhon mein utarte hue itraen sitare
suraj hon to jal kar teri peshani se mar jaen


ranjhe ko to phir hir ki taswir bahut hai
ji karta tha lag kar usi marjaani se mar jaen
