Zindagi yun hui basar tanhakaafila saath aur safar tanha
Apne saaye se chaunk jaate hain
Umar guzari hai is qadar tanha
Raat bhar bolte hain sannaate
Raat kaate koi kidhar tanha
Din guzarta nahi hai logon mein
Raat hoti nahi basar tanha
Humne darwaaze tak to dekha tha
Phir na jaane gaye kidhar tanha
