wafa mein paikar-e-isar banna kitna mushkil hai

wafa mein paikar-e-isar banna kitna mushkil hai
kisi ke pyar ka haqdar banna kitna mushkil hai
masail har qabile ke samajh lena to hai aasan
qabile ka magar sardar banna kitna mushkil hai


tasadum hai yahan baham mafadat-e-khususi hain
yahan par ghair-jaanib-dar banna kitna mushkil hai
jahan par jabr-e-hakim se sabhi ki gardanen kham hon
wahan par sahab-e-dastar banna kitna mushkil hai


bahut aasan hai shoalon ka phulon mein badal jaana
khud apni aag mein gulzar banna kitna mushkil hai
ghamon ke rang se khushiyon ke khake hum banate hain
hamein malum hai fankar banna kitna mushkil hai


hum apne ahd ke bachchon ko itna to bataenge
bina mehnat kiye zardar banna kitna mushkil hai
uthane ko ye diwaren to 'sima' sab utha lenge
magar ek saya-e-diwar banna kitna mushkil hai
