main ne ab samjha hai raaz-e-kaenat
kar raha hun gham se tamir-e-hayat

kis tawaqqo par banaun aashiyan
zindagi hai aur barq-e-hadisat

manzil-e-gham is qadar aasan na thi
rah gae munh dekh kar sabr-o-sabaat

jo mohabbat se raha na-ashna
ho ke rah jata hai nang-e-kaenat

chha rahi hain har taraf hairaniyan
aql hai begana-e-raaz-e-hayat

mere rukh par to na the gham ke nishan
tum samajh lete ho shayad dil ki baat

'hosh' kya kije hadis-e-gham bayan
kaun kah sakta hai dil ki wardat
