zindagī yuuñ huī basar tanhā
qāfila saath aur safar tanhā
apne saa.e se chauñk jaate haiñ
umr guzrī hai is qadar tanhā
raat bhar bāteñ karte haiñ taare
raat kaaTe koī kidhar tanhā
Dūbne vaale paar jā utre
naqsh-e-pā apne chhoḌ kar tanhā
din guzartā nahīñ hai logoñ meñ
raat hotī nahīñ basar tanhā
ham ne darvāze tak to dekhā thā
phir na jaane ga.e kidhar tanhā
zindagi yun hui basar tanha
qafila sath aur safar tanha
apne sae se chaunk jate hain
umr guzri hai is qadar tanha
raat bhar baaten karte hain tare
raat kaTe koi kidhar tanha
Dubne wale par ja utre
naqsh-e-pa apne chhoD kar tanha
din guzarta nahin hai logon mein
raat hoti nahin basar tanha
hum ne darwaze tak to dekha tha
phir na jaane gae kidhar tanha
