rasm hai ye duniya ki khel hai ye qismat ka
chahte jise hum hain wo nahin hai chahat ka

jis ne hijr kata hai bas wo jaan sakta hai
zakhm sil nahin sakta dard hai wo shiddat ka

aankh mar to jati hai jine ki tamanna mein
aur wo nahin marta jo hai khwab hasrat ka

jo likha lakiron mein us ko pura hona hai
waqt tal nahin sakta har ghadi musibat ka

sirf qasmen wade hain aur waqt padne par
sath bhi nahin deta ab koi mohabbat ka
