dekha hai zindagi ko kuchh itne qarib se
dekhā hai zindagī ko kuchh itne qarīb se
chehre tamām lagne lage haiñ ajiib se
ai rūh-e-asr jaag kahāñ so rahī hai tū
āvāz de rahe haiñ payambar salīb se
is reñgtī hayāt kā kab tak uThā.eñ baar
bīmār ab ulajhne lage haiñ tabīb se
har gaam par hai majma-e-ushshāq muntazir
maqtal kī raah miltī hai kū-e-habīb se
is tarah zindagī ne diyā hai hamārā saath
jaise koī nibāh rahā ho raqīb se
dekha hai zindagi ko kuchh itne qarib se
chehre tamam lagne lage hain ajib se
ai ruh-e-asr jag kahan so rahi hai tu
aawaz de rahe hain payambar salib se
is rengti hayat ka kab tak uThaen bar
bimar ab ulajhne lage hain tabib se
har gam par hai majma-e-ushshaq muntazir
maqtal ki rah milti hai ku-e-habib se
is tarah zindagi ne diya hai hamara sath
jaise koi nibah raha ho raqib se
