Aaj bichhade hain, kal kaa dar bhee naheen
Jindagee itanee mukhtasar bhee naheen
Jakhm dikhate naheen abhee lekeen
Thhande honge to dard nikalegaa
Ayesh utaregaa wakt kaa jab bhee
Cheharaa andar se jard nikalegaa
Kahanewaalon kaa kuchh naheen jaataa
Sahane waale kamaal karate hain
Kaun dhoondhe jawaab dardon ke
Log to bas sawaal karate hain
Kal jo aayegaa jaane kyaa hogaa
Beet jaaye jo kal naheen aate
Wakt kee shaakh todane waalon
Tootee shaakhon pe fal naheen aate
Kachchee mittee hain, dil bhee insaan bhee
Dekhane hee mein sakht lagataa hain
Aansoo pochhe to aasuon ke nishaan
Khushk hone mein wakt lagataa hain
