Laai hayat aae qaza le chali chale
Laai hayat aae qaza le chali chale
Apni khushi na aae na apni khushi chale
Ho umr-e-khizr bhi to ho maalum vaqt-e-marg
Ham kya rahe yahan abhi aae abhi chale
Ho umr-e-khizr bhi to ho maalum vaqt-e-marg
Ham kya rahe yahan abhi aae abhi chale
Ham se bhi is bisat pe kam honge bad-qimar
Jo chaal ham chale so nihayat buri chale
Behtar to hai yahi ki na duniya se dil lage
Par kya karen jo kaam na be-dil-lagi chale
Laila ka naaqa dasht men tasir-e-ishq se
Sun kar fughan-e-qais baja-e-hudi chale
Nazan na ho khirad pe jo hona hai ho vahi
Danish tiri na kuchh miri danish-vari chale
Duniya ne kis ka rah-e-fana men diya hai saath
Tum bhi chale chalo yunhi jab tak chali chale
Jaate hava-e-shauq men hain is chaman se ‘zauq’
Apni bala se bad-e-saba ab kabhi chale
Ibrahim Zauq
