nizam-e-har-do-alam intizam-e-wusat-e-dil hai
ye jo kuchh hai wahi sab kuchh hai sab kuchh is mein shamil hai

mujhe aata hai har mushkil ko aasani bana lena
mujhe mushkil nahin mushkil badi mushkil ye mushkil hai

talash-e-manzil-e-maqsud hai ek shaghl-e-bekari
bahut kuchh hum ko apni sai-e-la-hasil se hasil hai

maqam-e-afiyat milta hai kab bargashta-qismat ko
hum aa pahonche to yun samjho bala manzil pe nazil hai

bacha le jae tu kashti ko maujon ke thapedon se
abhi to dur hi aafiyyat-e-sahil se sahil hai

tere pas-mandagan-e-rah bhi hain rahbar-e-alam
yahan to jo koi naqis bhi hai kaamil se kaamil hai

hujum-e-hasrat-o-arman se ghar khali nahin rahta
jahan hum hain wahan har-waqt ek mahfil ki mahfil hai

jahan khuddar banta hai wahan khuddar banta hai
yahi to haal 'khushtar' hai jahan sail hai sail hai
