zindagi mein kisi rukh ka kisi dukh ka hona
achchha hota hai safar mein koi apna hona

dard bhi mauj ke manind safar karte hain
achchha rahta hai palak par koi tara hona

thokaren marne lagta hai lahu nas nas mein
kitna dushwar hai tera mera apna hona

ek hum hain ki tere ho ke bhi aawara hain
apni taqdir hai aawaza-e-sahra hona

kargar kaun raha kar-e-wafa mein 'khalid'
kis ki qismat mein hai farhad ka tesha hona
