"hamare aib men jis se madad mile ham ko hamen hai aaj kal aise kisi hunar ki talash"

"kya irade hain vahshat-e-dil ke kis se milna hai khaak men mil ke"

"kahne vaale vo sunne vaala main ek bhi aaj dusra na hua"

"phir chak-damani ki hamen qadr kyuun na ho jab aur dusra nahin koi libas paas"

"kis ko mehrban kahiye kaun mehrban apna vaqt ki ye baten hain vaqt ab kahan apna"

"tum aise achchhe ki achchhe nahin kisi ke saath main vo bura ki kisi ka bura nahin karta"

dusron ko kyaa kahiye dusri hai duniyaa hi
ek ek apne ko ham ne dusraa paayaa

zaahir na thaa nahin sahi lekin zuhur thaa
kuchh kyuun na thaa jahaan mein kuchh to zarur thaa

hamaare aib mein jis se madad mile ham ko
hamein hai aaj kal aise kisi hunar ki talaash

ab kahaan guftugu mohabbat ki
aisi baatein hue zamaana huaa

hichkiyon par ho rahaa hai zindagi kaa raag khatm
jhaTke de kar taar toDe jaa rahe hain saaz ke

riyaa-kaari ke sajde shaikh le baiTheinge masjid ko
kisi din dekhnaa ho kar rahegi sar-nigun vo bhi
