jo kuchh ab hone wala hai jaan nahin sakta koi
jaanne se bhi kya hasil jab man nahin sakta koi

sunte hain ayyar hai koi bhes badal kar rahta hai
samne aa bhi jae to pahchan nahin sakta koi

kahte hain inam bada hai kaam to hai ye karne ka
kaam magar aisa karne ki than nahin sakta koi

ab chahe jis ko mil jae marzi hai us ki lekin
jaise hum ne khak hai chhani chhan nahin sakta koi

khel chhod kar jaane ka kuchh aur sabab hoga 'khalid'
itni jaldi haar ye sach hai man nahin sakta koi
