Ek ajab si paheli hai zindagi

Ek ajab si paheli hai zindagi,
sabke saath hote huye bhi, akeli
hai zindagi,

kabhi tu ek piyaara sa armaan hai zindagi,
to
kabhi dard se bharaa tufaan hai zindagi
,
kabhi to gulon se
bharaa gulistan hai zindagi,
to kabhi kanton se bhaara raasta
hai zindagi,

kabhi phulon jaisi masoom ho jati hai
zindagi,
to kubhi gunahon ka bojh ban jati hai zindagi

koi to
bataa de mujhe kya hai zindagi ?
sunaa hai chand roz ki mehmaan
hai zindagi,

zindagi ko chhod ek din jaana padegaa,
mott ko
uss pal galen lagaana paregaa,

zindagi se chahe jitnaa piyaar
tum kar lo,
hoti to aakhir bewaffa hai zindagi
