Duniya ke is shor main, mere dard ki awaazein dab ke reh gayin,
Zindagi ke is toofan main, ansooyon ki barish mitti mein mil ke beh gayi,
Jahaan bhi dhoondha tumhein, tum na mile mujhe,
Aur jab chhod di aaas, toh saamne mere yun achanak hi aa gaye,
Kyon? Aakhir kyon hai dard bharey maylon ka yeh silsila,
Samajhna toh bahut chahaa, par jawaab ek na mila,
Phir waqt ne samjhaya humein, kyon hai zindagi mein mushkilein,
Kyonki hum yun hi aam nahin, khaas phool hain kudrat ke jo is dharti pe hain khiley.
