zindagi to qaid hai aur parda-e-mahfil mein hai
zindagī to qaid hai aur parda-e-mahfil meñ hai
aarzū husn-e-zamīñ keī gosha-e-ġhāfil meñ hai
DhūñDhtā hai tū jise vo justujū merī bhī hai
maqsad-e-ahl-e-nazar to ek hī manzil meñ hai
bandish-e-kaun-o-makāñ parvāz meñ haa.il nahīñ
hāsil-e-jahd-o-amal to jazba-e-kāmil meñ hai
zulm kī tārīkiyoñ ko jumbish-e-lab sail-e-nūr
bol ki hai vaqt terā jo bhī tere dil meñ hai
jāñ-fishānī os keī aur miTTī keī talab
kyā bujhegī pyaas lekin kuchh namī to dil meñ hai
zindagi to qaid hai aur parda-e-mahfil mein hai
aarzu husn-e-zamin kei gosha-e-ghafil mein hai
DhunDhta hai tu jise wo justuju meri bhi hai
maqsad-e-ahl-e-nazar to ek hi manzil mein hai
bandish-e-kaun-o-makan parwaz mein hail nahin
hasil-e-jahd-o-amal to jazba-e-kaamil mein hai
zulm ki tarikiyon ko jumbish-e-lab sail-e-nur
bol ki hai waqt tera jo bhi tere dil mein hai
jaan-fishani os kei aur miTTi kei talab
kya bujhegi pyas lekin kuchh nami to dil mein hai
