Beyond the Parameters of Perfection

Kuch khalish to hai, kahan hai maloom nahi...
Dard to hota hai, kyon hota hai maloon nahi...

Zindagi hai agar tera milana to...
Kyon zinda hoon juda hokar maloom nahi...

Duniya kehta hoon tere saath ko, par ab...
Kya pukaaru is dasht ko maloom nahi...

Kashtiyon ko doobte dekha barha humne...
Majboori thi ke khwahishein maloom nahi...

Chot lagti hai dil ke dhadakne se seene par...
Paigham-e-nijaat kab aayega maloom nahi...
