zindagi kitni hai ajib-o-gharib

zindagi kya hai ek tamasha hai

zindagi rahguzar-e-be-manzil

be-talab be-husul jina hai

hain faqat chand log hi muKHtar

aur baqi jo hain wo bande hain

kya phire hain gale mein laTkae

ranj-o-mazlumiyat ke phande hain

phir bhi jite hain kya KHabar kya ho

kuchh dawami nahin nizam-e-kohan

garche hai ye maqam-e-dard-o-mehan

kya KHabar manzil-e-digar kya ho

aaj har chand hain ba-haal-e-zabun

kaun jaane ki kal magar kya ho
