thahar jao inhin gati hui pur-nur rahon mein
aur ek lamhe ko ye socho

hare shital manohar kitne jangal aaj viran hai
wo kaisi lahlahati khetiyan thin ab jo pinhan hain

wo manzar kitne dilkash the jo ab yaad-e-gurezan hain
bas ek lamhe ko ye socho

na jaane kitni nashon ko kuchal kar aaj lae ho
nai tahzib ki in jannaton mein

jalwa-gahon mein
suno insan hun

aur roz-e-azal hi se
meri takhliq aur tamir ke jalwe farozan hain

main jab marta hun
tab ek zindagi aabaad hoti hai
