sab kuchh to zindagi ki mata-e-safar mein hai
jab tum nazar mein ho to zamana nazar mein hai

yun bhi to soch naz-kash-e-husn-e-dostan
tera bhi kuchh maqam kisi ki nazar mein hai

padh lete hain wo sab ki nazar se dilon ka haal
andar se kaun kya hai sab un ki nazar mein hai

kyun ho raha hai tajziya-e-jaur-e-na-rawa
taswir ka ye rukh bhi kisi ki nazar mein hai

yaro shikar-e-waqt hun ya aasman-shikar
jo kuchh bhi hun sab ahl-e-nazar ki nazar mein hai

ab kya shikayat-e-rawish-e-dostan karun
'ghausi' meri kami bhi to meri nazar mein hai
