haden badhne lagi thi tirgi ki
kami jab ho gai thi raushni ki

khuda tu hi bata kis baat pe ye
saza hum ko mili hai zindagi ki

koi karta nahin hai intizar ab
zarurat bhi nahin padti ghadi ki

karen duniya jahan ki fikr kyon hum
hamari umr hai aawargi ki

hum ek muddat se roe ja rahe hain
chukani pad rahi qimat hansi ki

khushi mein yaad na aai khuda ki
jab aaya gham usi ki bandagi ki

main ab har chiz se ukta chuka hun
mujhe mat do duaen zindagi ki
