aadat yeh kab badalti hai

musafir to bicharte hain,
kismat kab badalti hai,
mohabbat zinda rehti hai,
mohabbat kab badalti hai.

tumhi ko chahte hain hum,
tumhi se pyar karte hain,
yehi barson se aadat hai,
to aadat kab badalti hai.

kalli ka phool banna aur
bikhar jana mukaddar hai,
yehi kanoon-e-fitrat hai,
to fitrat kab badalti hai.

jo dil pe naksh kar jaye
aur aankhon mein simat aaye,
aadat hai ye chahat ki,
to chahat kab badalti hai.

badal jate hain mausam,
phool mein khushboo nahi rehti,
magar chahat ke phoolon ki
mehakk kab badalti hai.

unhein chaha, unhein khoya,
yehi takdir hai apni,
hamein gumrah mat samjho
ibadat kab badalti hai.

purane zakhm ko raaj
bhula dena hi acha hai,
na chahe aap hi koi
to kismat kab badalti hai.
