jitni likkhi thi muqaddar mein hum utni pi chuke
ab to din marne ke hain jina tha jitna ji chuke

ai zamane ab na aana hum ko samjhane kabhi
apni kah li sab ki sun li honth ab to si chuke

ab hamari khushk aankhon mein na kuchh dhundhe koi
ashk jitne in mein the hum pi chuke hum pi chuke

ghar se be-ghar ho gae ab ghar ki yaad aae to kyon
zindagi pichha na kar hum ji chuke hum ji chuke
