Koi Poochhega Jis Din Waqai Ye Zindagi Kya Hai;
Zameen Se Ek Mutthi Khaak Lekar Hum Uda Denge!
Bhanwar Se Lado Tund Lehron Se Uljho;
Kahan Tak Chaloge Kinare Kinare!
Neend Kya Hai Zara Si Der Ki Maut;
Maut Kya Kya Hai Tamam Umar Ki Neend!
Behtar Dinon Ki Aas Lagaate Hue Habib;
Hum Behtareen Din Bhi Ganwaate Chale Gaye!
Raat Din Gardish Mein Hain Lekin Pada Rehta Hoon Main;
Kaam Kya Mera Yahan Hai Sochta Rehta Hoon Main!
Jo Kuch Hua Woh Kaise Hua Jaanta Hun Main;
Jo Kuch Nahi Hua Woh Bata Kyon Nahi Hua!
Maut Us Ki Hai Kare Jis Ka Zamana Afsos;
Yun To Duniya Mein Sabhi Aaye Hain Marne Ke Liye!
Zindagi Hum Se Tere Naaz Uthaye Na Gaye;
Saans Lene Ki Faqat Rasm Ada Karte The!
Zindagi Shayad Isi Ka Naam Hai;
Dooriyan Mazbooriyan Tanhaiyan!
Sair Kar Duniya Ki Ghafil Zindagani Phir Kahan;
Zindagi Gar Kuch Rahi To Ye Jawani Phir Kahan!
