Koshishien kabhi kabhi nakaam ho jaati hain

Koshishien kabhi kabhi nakaam ho jaate' hain,
Dil kabhi kabhi udaas ho jaata hai.

Kamyabi jaise' humse' rooth hi gayi ho,
Mann mein aise' behke' hue' khayaal aate' hain.

Ek-a-ek naa jaane' kahaan se' yeh pukaar aati hain,
"Bas kya yahi hai tumhari wajood?"
"Tumhari zindagi ki kya yahi pehchan hai?"

Neend ke' aagosh mein hum,

Aise' khyalon ko shabba khair kehte' hain.

Aur agle din ke' unn ujaalon mein,

Ek naye' josh ki mehak dhoondte' hain.

Naa jaane kahaan se' woh josh laut aati hai?
Hum ek naye' jung mein doob hi jaate' hain.

"Aage kya höga?" yeh faun fikar karta hai?
"Kamyabi humse' ab bachkar kahaan jaayegi?"
Isi josh mein ek naye' jung mein doob jaate' hain.
