dekhaa hai zindagii ko kuchh itanaa qareeb se
chehare tamaam lagane lage haiN ajeeb se

beemaar ab ulajhane lage haiN tabeeb se

har gaam  par hai majamaa-e-ushshaaq muntazir
maqtal kii raah milati hai koo-e-habeeb se

is tarah zindagii ne diyaa hai hamaaraa saath
jaise ko_iii nibaah rahaa ho raqeeb se

ai rooh-e-asar jaag kahaaN so rahii hai tuu
aawaaz de rahe haiN payambar saleeb se
