Udaasiyon ka hunar ikhtiyaar karte hain

Udaasiyon ka hunar ikhtiyaar karte hain,

Khushi ko zard ruton main shumaar karte hain,

Tum aao, dekho, saraaho, koi to baat karo,

Tumhare vaaste solah singhaar karte hain,

Gulaab le ke seeney main jo kaante sompey,

Hum is tarah ka bhala karobaar karte hain ?

Faqat wisaal ko kehte hain zindagi hum log,

Firaaq ke kahan lamhe shumaar karte hain,

Nishaane un ke kabi chonkte nahin dekhe,

Bohat qareeb se jo log waar karte hain,

Yeh mausmon se shikayat kyun hai hum ko,

Yeh zikar kis ka bhala baar baar karte hain,

Yeh chaand shab se sehar tak kis ka hai matlashi,

Sitaarey yoon kis ka intizaar karte hain..

Udaasiyon ka hunar ikhtiyaar karte hain,
