aql ki aisi tabedari hai

ilm-o-hunar se qaum ko raghbat nahin rahi

kyon wo mera markaz-e-afkar tha

kahta rahe zamana gunahgar zindagi

gham-e-hijran se zara yun bhi nibhai jae

ai meri jaan tujhe aur badalna hoga

dil ke andar ek zara si be-kali hai aaj bhi

har kisi ki hai zabani dosti

pichhle kisi safar ka sitara na DhunD le

koi kaba na kalisa na sanam mera hai

KHwahishon ka imtihan hone to do

mil ke baiThen to hum kahin pahle

aisa lagta hai samajhdar hai duniya sari
