pehle bhi jite the magar jabse mili hai zindagi
sidhi nahi hai dur tak ulajhi huyi hai zindagi

achchhi bhali thi dur se jab paas aai kho gayi
jismein na aaye kuch nazar wo roshani hai zindagi

har raasta anjaan sa, har phalsafa naadaan sa
sadiyon puraani hai magar har din nai hai zindagi

mitti hawa ban kar udi ghoomi phiri waapas mudi
kabaro pe qatabo ki tarah likkhi huyi hai zindagi

We lived before, but since you graced my world,
Life's path, no longer straight, a tangled swirl.
Fair from afar, but close, it disappears,
A light that blinds, where nothing else appears.

Each road unknown, each wisdom still so young,
Though ancient, centuries long, each day is sprung.
Like dust, it swirls, then settles to the ground,
On tombstones, etched, where life's last words are found.
