na jaane kis se bichhde the hum aise
zamane bhar ne dil rakkha hamara

sada gunji magar khali hi lauti
nishana phir nahin chuka hamara

tasawwuf ki jo sunte kuchh na karte
kisi jangal mein dil lagta hamara

tawazun mangne aaya tha suraj
banana pad gaya saya hamara

zamana so gae the tab jage hum
koi sapna nahin tuta hamara

shajar the kat ke lae gae hum
jahan mein kho gaya qissa hamara

sukhan se us ki hairat chhin lega
muqarrar waqt par marna hamara
