Jo guzar gaya so guzar gaya

Na gila kiye,

Na khafa huey,

Yunhi raastey mein judaa huey,

Na wo bewafa tha na mein bewafa,

Jo guzar gaya so guzar gaya,

Wo ghazal ki ek kitaab tha,

Wo gulon mein ek gulaab tha,

Zara der ka koi khawab tha,

Jo guzar gaya so guzar gaya,

Wo udaas dhoop samait kar,

Kahin waadion mein utar gaya,

usay ab na de merey dil sada,

Jo guzar gaya so guzar gaya,

Ye safar bhi kitna taweel hai,

Kahan loat kar koi aaye ga,

Jo guzar gaya so guzar gaya.
