Maal-e-soz-e-gham haaye! nihani dekhte jao
bhardak uthi hai shamma-e-zindagani dekhte jao
sunae jate na the tum se, mere din raat ke shikve
kafan sarkao, meri be-zubani daikhte jao
chale bhi aao wo hai qabr-e-fani dekhte jao
tum apne marne wale ke nishani dekhte jao
abhi kya hai kisi din khoon rulayega ye khamoshi
zuban-e-hal ki jadd-o-bayani dekhte jao
ghuroor-e-husn ka sadqa, koi jata hai duniya se
kisi ki khaak mein milti javani, dekhte jao
udhar munh pher kar kya zibah karte ho, idhar dekho!
meri gardan pe khanjar ki ravani dekhte jao
bahar-e-zindagi ka lutf dekha hai aur dekho ge
kisi ka aish marg-e-nagahani dekhte jao
wo utha shor-e-matam aakhari didar-e-mayyat par
ab utha chahate hain nash-e-fani dekhte jao
