duniya nahi kabil lekar dard-e-dil jeene ke

apnon ko chhot dikhayi na di meri,
aur gair zakham sehalane lage,

dekh kar tanhai mein mujhe,
mehafil mein log muskurane lage,

meri chhokhat par torda rishta usne,
jisse banane mein mujhe zamane lage,

maine duniya se chhupai mulakate humari,
ab uski di huyi badnami ke rang suhane lage,

wafa-e-ishq nibhayenge jaan lutakar bhi,
aab yeh kisse purane lage,

kabhi banna chaahi thi dulhan jisski,
aab wahi mujhe kaffan odhane lage,

uski bewaffai thi sirf kismat meri,
yahi keh kar hum dil ko behalane lage,

duniya nahi kabil ”raaj” lekar dard-e-dil jeene ke,
issi liye ab khushi khushi maut ko gale lagane lage.
