ज़िंदगी एक कर्ज़ है
एक मुश्त ले कर के
किश्तों में वापसी
सांस पर लगी है फांस.
चुकाया हुआ क़र्ज़ जो है
ज़िंदगी का वेग है और
कर्म का आवेग है.
वक़्त मेहरबां रहे
चलता कारवां रहे
नौबत न आये करें
किश्तों के स्थान पर
एक मुश्त वापसी.
जीने की शर्त है
शर्तों में डूब कर
कर्ज़ की है वापसी
सो कुल मिला के ज़िंदगी
है एक सौदा शर्तिया.
Kisne manga tha kub kisi se qarz, haye majboor hain azal se hum, Zindigi jaisi shay ke badle mein apne jazbat hayn rehan aye dost. Akhtar Jawad
