Tumhain maloom hai hum ne kisi kay hijar main yeh zindagi kaisay guzaari hai

Tumhain maloom hai hum ne

Kisi kay hijar main yeh zindagi kaisay guzaari hai

Her ik khushboo ki aahat par

Gumaan us ka guzarta tha

Her aik sa'at yeh dil aankhon main aa kay baith jaata tha

Kai pehlu badalti sa'atain haathon ko phailaye

Dua main maangtay aur haamptay dil se guzarti thein

Magar jo hijar laa'haq hai

Woh jism-o-jaan ki dewaarain giraata hai

Umeed-o-baam ki aankhon se beenai kay saaray

Manzaron ko

Khaak karta aur mitaata hai

So hum bhi khaak hain

Aur khaak ki taqdeer main likha gaya hai be'amaan rehna
