Dhoonp kay dasht mian shishay ki ridain di hain

Dhoonp kay dasht mian shishay ki ridain di hain,
Zindagi! To nay humain kesi sazain di hain,

Shooloon jesi he ata ki hain sulagti bondain,
Aag barsati howi hum ko ghatain di hain,

Aik dua go ne rafaqat ki tasali day kr,
Umar bhar hijar main jalnay ki sazain di hain,

Dil ko bhujnay ka bahana koi darker to tha,
Dukh to yeh hy tere daman ne hawain di hain,

Kesa mahool mila hy humain jinay k liye,
Danay waloon ne humain kesi fizaain di hain.
