jindagee ke safar me, gujar jaate hain jo makaam
wo fir naheen aate, wo fir naheen aate

ful khilate hai, log milate hain magar
patazad mein jo fool murazaa jaate hain
wo bahaaron ke aane se khilate naheen
kuchh log yek roj jo bichhad jaate hain
wo hajaaron ke aane se milate naheen
umarbhar chaahe koee pukaaraa kare unakaa naam
wo fir naheen aate ...

aankh dhokhaa hai, kyaa bharosaa hai, suno
dosto shak dostee kaa dushman hain
apane dil mein ise ghar banaane naa do
kal tadapanaa pade yaad mein jin ke
rok lo, ruthhakar un ko jaane naa do
baad mein pyaar ke, chaahe bhejo hajaaro salaam
wo fir naheen aate ...

subah aatee hai, raat jaatee hai, yoonhee
wakt chalataa hee rahataa hai, rukataa naheen
yek pal mein ye aage nikal jaataa hain
aadamee thhik se dekh paataa naheen
aaur parade pe manjar badal jaataa hain
yek baar chale jaate hai, jo din raat  subah, shaam
wo fir naheen aate ...
