Hindustani Poetry: Yeh Duniya
Sab kuch hai phir bhi sukoon nhi
aisa kyon ke phir bhi jalte hain.
Neymatein aas paas ghoomti
phir bhi kisi tarah ka qaraar nhi aata.
Koi khud ke pairron pe khada to takleef
kisi ka koi sab kuch naam kar gya to tannz.
Ghareebi hai lekin sacchi mohabbat hai
badey badey gharon main khuloos ghayab.
Jahan apnaiyat hai parwah bharpoor
shaque ke gheyron main phir bhi khadey.
Dosti gehri kahin to
usmein bhi aib dhoond leti.
Suljhey huay rishte
ulljhaaney ko tayaar.
Paisa khuda hai
dua hai fizool.
Khudparasti ke dunke jab dekho
doosra punpey to qismat ka khel.
Dar-o-deewar gham main doobi
tab bhi chutkiyaan leti duniya.
Zinda hain to laantiyaan
marr gaye to acchaaiyon ke haar.
Khushiyon main barbaadiyaan dhoondti
yeh duniya hai jeene nhi degi kabhi.
