gham-e-hayat hai fikr-e-maash se logo
hamein to sadiyon se apni talash hai logo

main puchhta nahin dair-o-haram ke jhagdon ko
mujhe batao ye kis kis ki lash hai logo

kisi ke hath mein hain rang-o-nasl ke pate
kisi ke hath mein mazhab ka tash hai logo

lahu lahu hai meri zindagi ka pairahan
hujum-e-gham se jigar pash-pash hai logo

hamare dil mein hai jo kuchh wahi zaban pe hai
hamara raaz to har ek pe fash hai logo

'umar' ko qatl kiya hai usi ke bhai ne
ye hadisa bhi bada dil-kharash hai logo
