ziist yūñhī na rahegī maġhmūm

zindagānī ko badalnā hogā

maut kā saaya laraztā hai to kyā

vaqt ālām ko laayā hai to kyā

ġham ko sah jaa.eñ dilāvar ban kar

pī leñ dariyā ko samundar ban kar

ġham to aate hī raheñge paiham

āte-jāte hī raheñge har-dam

ġham-o-andoh kī kuchh baat nahīñ

ye koī lamha-e-haihāt nahīñ

raat tārīk bhī sunsān bhī hai

azm ke giit to gaa.eñ aao
