'faraaz' is tarah zindagi hai gizaari — Faraz Sultanpuri

ye dil hai dil ise siine mein hargiz
kabhi rakhnaa na tum patthar banaa ke

dhuup ki sakhti to thi lekin 'faraaz'
zindagi mein phir bhi thaa saaya bahut

phulon ki taazgi mein udaasi hai shaam ki
saae ghamon ke itne to gahre kabhi na the

kahin aisaa na ho main duur khud apne se ho jaaun
meri hasti ke hangaamon mein kuchh tanhaaiyaan rakh do

kam-umri mein sunet hain
mar jaate hain achchhe log

zindagi tu bhi hamein vaise hi ik roz guzaar
jis tarah ham tujhe barson se guzaare hue hain

umr bhar kaun nibhaataa hai ta'alluq itnaa
ai miri jaan ke dushman tujhe allaah rakkhe

main tujh se saath bhi to umar bhar kaa chaahtaa thaa
so ab tujh se gilaa bhi umar bhar kaa ho gayaa hai

zindagi zor hai ravaani kaa
kyaa thamegaa bahaav paani kaa

bas ek pal ki tamannaa-e-vasl ki khaatir
tamaam 'umr lagaa di gai sanvarne mein
