zindagi
is bar teri haar tai hai

main
tujhe is kanpte sine ke andar

ghunt dunga
is tarah

ki to kahin madum ho jaegi yaksar
zindagi

tujh se
tera rakht-e-tanaffus chhin lunga

aur tere thartharaate jism ko
main bhi hiqarat se takunga

ai mujhe malum hain
sab makr tere

ye tigapu-e-rah-e-adam
ye fareb-e-haw-hu

le teri ranaiyon par
kar raha hun aakh-thu
