Raat kaali thi to raat bhar jaagte rahe hum

Diye apne khoon se jalate rahe hum

Dil-e-afsurda ko sanwaarte rahe hum

Akhuvat ke, ek-dili ke geet gaate rahe hum

Unke har chot ko sehlaate rahe hum

Marham apne wajood ka lagate rahe hum

Aansu pochhte, cheekho'n ko behlate rahe hum

Sadak par bikhre hausle uthaate rahe hum

Mumkin tha behekna to hoshiyar rahe hum

Maathe par haunsle taake tayyar rahe hum

Munafiq na ho jaayein so bedaar rahe hum

Na-munsib tha jhukna so yun he bezaar rahe hum

Apne tooti phooti khushiyon mein shaad rahenge hum

afsurdagi mein bhi be-dar-o-baam aabad rahenge hum

Sitam-gar ki bediyo mein bhi tab-e-aazad rahenge hum

Tumhari humari zindagi to faani hai, taareekh mein be-miad rahenge hum
