ehsaan zindagi pe kiye jaa rahe hain ham — Imtiyaz Khan

ham ko aksar ye khayaal aataa hai us ko dekh kar
ye sitaara kaise ghalati se zamin par rah gayaa

kyaa yunhi khaamosh duniyaa se guzar jaaeinge ham
kyaa jo kahnaa hai vo sab kuchh an-kahaa rah jaaegaa

raah-e-dil ko raund kar aage nikal jaaeinge log
aankh mein uThtaa ghubaar-e-qaafila rah jaaegaa

kam-umri mein sunet hain
mar jaate hain achchhe log

umr bhar kaun nibhaataa hai ta'alluq itnaa
ai miri jaan ke dushman tujhe allaah rakkhe

apne man mein Duub kar paa jaa suraagh-e-zindagi
tu agar meraa nahin bantaa na ban apnaa to ban

main tujh se saath bhi to umar bhar kaa chaahtaa thaa
so ab tujh se gilaa bhi umar bhar kaa ho gayaa hai

zindagi tu bhi hamein vaise hi ik roz guzaar
jis tarah ham tujhe barson se guzaare hue hain

baDe qalaq ki baat hai ki tum ise na paDh sake
hamaari zindagi to ik khuli hui kitaab thi
