is bhare shahr mein koi aisa nahin
jo mujhe rah chalte ko pahchan le

aur aawaz de o be o sar-phire
donon ek dusre se lipat kar wahin [...]

har nafas minnat-kash-e-alam hai
zindagi shayad isi ka nam hai

zindagi se ek din mausam khafa ho jaenge
rang-e-gul aur bu-e-gul donon hawa ho jaenge

aankh se aansu nikal jaenge aur tahni se phul
waqt badlega to sab qaidi riha ho jaenge [...]

dekh mahrumi ki barakat zinda hun
main tere gham ki badaulat zinda hun

jannaten hain murda jismon ke liye
ye saza hai ya inayat zinda hun [...]

Gham k bina zindagi adhoori hai
phir bhee tera jeena zarori hai
mat ho apni zindigai sey khafa
kyon ki teri zindagi k bina
ek aour zindagi adhoori hai

Dil ke chhalon ko koi shayari kahe, to dard nahi hota
takleef to tab hoti hai, jab log wah-wah karte hain

apne hisse ki zindagi to hum kabke jee chuke,
ab to sirf dhadkanon ka lihaj karte hain,

kya karen is duniya walon ka,
jo aakhari dhadkano pe bhi aitaraz karte hain.
