Mani-taraaziyan Hain Rangin-bayaniyan Hain

mani-taraaziyan hain rangin-bayaniyan hain

duniya mein jitne munh hain utni kahaniyan hain

mani-taraaziyan ya rangin-bayaniyan hain

ye bhi kahaniyan hain wo bhi kahaniyan hain

kya mehrbaniyan thin kya mehrbaniyan hain

wo bhi kahaniyan thin ye bhi kahaniyan hain

ek bar us ne mujh ko dekha tha muskura kar

itni si hai haqiqat baqi kahaniyan hain

sunta hai koi kis ki kis ko sunae koi

har ek ki zaban par apni kahaniyan hain

kuchh baat hai jo chup hun main sab ki sun ke warna

yaad ai 'wafa' mujhe bhi sab ki kahaniyan hain
