Ghalib sun! yeh duniya hai… duniya!,
duniya meiN ghum chhupanA padta hai,
dil main chahe lakh ghum ho,
mehfil meiN muskarAna hi padta hai

AshkoN ko humne kayi baar roka,
phir bhi na jane kyoN ankheN dhoka de gayi,
Bharosa to tha hameiN apne aap par magar,
unka zikr aate hi naa jane kyoN palkeN nam ho gayi.

Don’t lower your Goals to the level of your abilities.
Instead, raise your abilities to the height of your goals

Dilon se khelne ka hunar hume nahi aata
Isiliye ishq ki baazi hum haar gaye
Meri zindagi se shayad unhe bahut pyar tha
Isiliye mujhe zinda hi maar gaye….

 Zindagi mein ek haseen galti kar baithe
Hum nadani mein pyar kar baithe
Dil ko apne khud thokar maar baithe
Ek bewafaa se murhum ki umeed kar baithe
