ye mana humne ye duniya anokhi hai nirali hai

ye mana hum ne ye duniya anokhi hai nirali hai
chalegi chaal kya hum se hamari dekhi-bhaali hai
'azizo tum ko meri chashm-e-tar se kitna shikwa tha
chalo ab khush raho apna ye paimana bhi khali hai


har ek gham ka mudawa ek be-ma'ni tabassum hai
mere dil ka bharosa kya bahut hi la-ubaali hai
kahin mahfil jamaen hum bhi ab pine-pilane ki
ye kya kam hai hamare pas jo jam-e-sifali hai


jo kuchh ahwal hai apna bayan karne se kya hasil
zaban-e-khamushi sahab-dilon ka tarz-e-'ali hai
