Koi ummeed bar naheen aati
koi surat nazar naheen aati…..
Maut ka ek din muayyan hai,
neend kyun raat bhar naheen aati…..
Jaanta hoon sawaab e taa’at u zuhd
par tabiyyat udhar naheen jaati…..
Aage aati thee haal e dil pe hansi
abb kisi baat par naheen aati…..
Hai kuch aisi hi baat jo chup hoon
warna kya baat kar naheen aati…..
Daagh-e-dil gar nazar naheen aata
boo bhi aye charagar naheen aati…..
Hum wahaan hain jahan se humko bhi
kuch humari khabar naheen aati…..
Kyun na cheekhoon ke yaad karte hain
meri aawaaz gar naheen aati…..
Marte hain aarzoo mein marne ki
Maut aati hai par naheen aati….
Kaaba kis moun se jaaoge Ghalib
sharm tumko magar naheen aati
