Jeewan kaa yahi afsaanaa hai

 dard bhari is duniyaa mein
kyaa teraa hai, kyaa meraa hai
socho kyaa lekar aaye the
kyaa lekar waapas jaanaa hai

koi apnaa nahi, koi sapnaa nahi
sapno ko toot hi jaanaa hai
jhooti mooti shaan-o-shaukat
sab yahin chhod ke jaanaa hai

jo saath rahaa woh saathi hai
jo door gayaa woh paraayaa hai
in jhoote moote rishto mein
kisko bandhke reh jaanaa hai

kyaa khonaa hai, kyaa paanaa hai
fir bhi chalte hi jaanaa hai
jeete hain bas yunhi hum sab
jeewan kaa yahi afsaanaa hai

koi paas nahi, koi khaas nahi
apnaa naa koi thikaanaa hai
mitti se hi hum aaye the aur
mitti mein hi mil jaanaa hai...
