shikast-e-zindagi waise bhi maut hi hai na

us lamhe tishna-lab ret bhi pani hoti hai

kal apne shahr ki bas mein sawar hote hue

aadmi KHwar bhi hota hai nahin bhi hota

jab ek sarab mein pyason ko pyas utarti hai

Dubo raha hai mujhe Dubne ka KHauf ab tak

ek waDera kuchh maweshi le ke baiTha hai yahan

shikast-e-zindagi waise bhi maut hi hai na

itni sari yaadon ke hote bhi jab dil mein

ye jo kuchh log KHayalon mein raha karte hain
