Yahi halat ibtada se rahe
log hum se khafa khafa se rahe
bevafa tum kabhi na the lekin
ye bhi sach hai ki bevafa se rahe
in chiragon mein tel hi kam tha
kyon gila phir hamen hawa se rahe
bahas, shatranj sher mausiqi
tum nahi rahe to ye dilase rahe
usake bandon ko dekhakar kahiye
hamako umeed kya khuda se rahe
zindagi ke sharab mangate ho
hum ko dekho ki pi ke pyase rahe
