Dekhaa hai zindagii ko kuchh itanaa qariib se
chehare tamaam lagane lage hain ajiib se

is rengatii hayaat kaa kab tak uThaayen baar
biimaar ab ulajhane lage hain tabiib se



har gaam par hai majamaa-e-ushshaaq muntazir
maqtal kii raah milatii hai kuu-e-habiib se



is tarah zindagii ne diyaa hai hamaaraa saath
jaise ko_ii nibaah rahaa ho raqiib se



ai ruuh-e-asar jaag kahaaN so rahii hai tuu
aavaaz de rahe hain payambar saliib se
