Zindagi Hai Jeb-O-Daman Par Garan Apni Jagah

Rahbar Jaunpuri

zindagi hai jeb-o-daman par garan apni jagah

ḳhvahishen leti hain dil men chuTkiyan apni jagah

vaqt ke tufan men qasr-e-sang Dah kar rah ga.e

hain magar maujud shishe ke makan apni jagah

main samajhta huun ki donon hi hain juzv-e-ka.enat

jang-o-shar apni jagah amn-o-aman apni jagah

kar diye raushan junun valon ne azmat ke charagh

ahl-e-aql-o-hosh ki ḳhush-fahmiyan apni jagah

pa-e-aqdas mohsin-e-insaniyat ka chuum kar

ho ga.i hai rashk-e-gardun kahkashan apni jagah
