…राह के पत्थर से बढ़ कर कुछ नहीं हैं मंज़िलें
रास्ते आवाज़ देते हैं सफ़र जारी रखो
एक ही नदी के हैं ये दो किनारे दोस्तों
दोस्ताना ज़िंदगी से मौत से यारी रखोराहत जी आप यूँ हमें छोड़ कर जाएंगे, सोचा न था। आप जिस दुनिया में भी हों, महफूज़ रहें, सफर जारी रहे।

Here are the poet’s finest couplets that will be remembered for ages to come:
1.Shakhon Se Tutjaayein Vo Patte Nahi Hain Hum,
Aandhi Se Koi Kah De ki Auqat Men Rahe
2. Aankhon Mein Paani Rakho, Hothon pe Chingaari Rakho
Jinda Rahna Hai to Tarkibe Bahut Saari Rakho
Rah Ke Patthar Se Badh ke Kuch Nahi Hain Manjilen
Raaste Qawaz Dete Hain Safar Jaari Rakho
3. Main Jab Mar Jaun Toh Meri Alag Pehchan Likh Dena,
Lahu se Meri Peshani Par Hindustan Likh Dena
4. Bohot Ghuroor hai Dariya ko Apne Hone Par
Jo Meri Pyaas se Ulzhe Toh Dhajiyaan Udd Jaaye
5. Log Har Mor Pe Ruk Ke Sambhalte Kyun Hain
Itna Darrte Hain to Ghar Se Nikalte Kyun Hain
6. Jagne ki Bhi Jagane ki Bhi Aadat ho Jaye
Kash Tujh Ko Bhi Kisi Shayer se Mohabbat ho Jaye
Door Hum Kitne Dinno Se hain ye Kabhi Gaur Kiya
Fir Na Kehna jo Ayanat me Khayanat Ho Jaye
7. Ek hi nadi ke hain ye do kinaare doston,
Dostana zindagi se, maut se yaari rakho.
8. Zubaan to khol, nazar to mila, jawab to de
Mein kitni baar luta hoon mujhe hisaab to de.
9. Kabhi mahak ki tarah hum gulon se udate hain
kabhi dhuyen ki tarah parvaton se udate hain
Ye kechiya hume udne se khaak rokengi
Ki hum paron se nahi housalon se udate hain
10. Sarhadon par tanaav he kya
Jara pata to karo chunaav hain kya
Shaharon me to baaroodo ka mausam hain
Gaonv chalo amroodon ka mausam hain
