Zindagi kya hai us phool se puchho

Zindagi kya hai us phool se puchho
Naseeb men jis ke ho ek subh ek shaam

Sukoon kya hai yeh to wohi batlaye
Labon pe jis ke ho khuda ka naam

Jab ba ja pareshaan hai insan o qurat
Himmat rakh bande hai yeh
usi ka nizaam

Bande sab bhai unhin ki hain behne
Kyon ghaayab dilon se hai phir ehtiraam

Woh bartar hai insan har insan se yaro
Bas ibadat maula ki ho jis ka kaam

Tu likhte reh ‘sahil’ koi padhe na padhe
Andaz e bayaan tera, hai tera kalaam
