A faiz gem explaining the futility of life of so many of us so succintly..
and a plain and simple language makes it easier for me and many other mortals like me to understand it without googling..

Woh Log Bohat Khush Qismat Th’ay,
Jo Ishaq Ko Kam Samujhtey Th’ay,
Ya Kam Say Aashiqi Kartey Th’ay,
Hum Jeetey Jee Masroof Ra’hay,
Kuch Ishq Kiya Kuch Kam Kiya,
Kam Ishaq Kay Aarey Aata Ra’ha,
Or Ishaq Say Kam Uljh’ta Ra’ha,
Ph’ir Aakh’er Tang Aaker Hum Nay,
Dono Ko Adhoora Cho’d Diya’.

Kya baat hai....
