Wo kehtein hain kisi ko muqammal jahan nahin milta,
kisi se dil nahin milta to koi dil se nahin milta..
Goya ke jise mile waladayein,
ushe mili hai muqammal zameen
aur gar mile azeemat e khidmat unki,
to saton arsh mil gaye.
Usne dhondha bahut ke kare Rabb ko Razi, gar khush hon maa baap, to Rabb Razi to sabh Razi..
Waqt se chehre kaise dhundhle padh jate hain, jaise rait se nishan gum jate hain. Wo jo azeez the kabhi,
Aaj unka zikr bhi nahin.
Aaj jo yahan hain abhi, kal jaane kahan wo bhi.
Kal hi to tha ke khele wo bachpan ke khel humne,
Udte parinde is gagan ke,
Palak jhapakte ek umr guzar jani hai,
Har pal zindagi badalti jaani hai.
Chaha kitna ke tham jaye ye waqt yahin,
Zam Zam kehke ruk jaye kahin.
Soye jabh to kahan the hum,
Ankh khuli to kuch bhi nahin...
Waqt sambhla kahan hai kisse,
Hatheli pe pani ho jaise.
Kal ko aaye the kal hi jana hai,
Waqt ka bhi ajab ye fasana hai...
