zindgi da git

saah chalde ne jadoñ tak rajj ke jīvāngā maiñ,

har khushī ġham de samundar Diik la pīvāngā maiñ.

mushakilāñ nuuñ dekh ke hai josh ThāThāñ mārdā,

masat hāthī dī tarhāñ chinghāḌdā, lalkārdā.

kashaT jihḌā vī mile mere, la.ī aksīr hai,

maut dī jo maut baNdā, ih uh tīkhaN tiir hai.

raat kaalī naal hī chann tāri.āñ dī shaan hai,

chhā gi.ā jo mushakilāñ te uh asal insān hai.

naal sami.āñ de rahe laḌdā hameshāñ ādmī,

vaañg jugnūñ de jagā.e andaroñ hī raushanī .

ki.uñ nā rakkhāñ phir hameshāñ aas dī khetī harī ?

chakkh ke dekhī hai maiñ, ih zindgī hai ras-bharī .

jīv-jantū, birachh-būTe aapNe hī ang ne,

zindgī de aks de hī ih anūpam rang ne .

zindgī hai suul zahirī, zindgī gulzār hai,

sinjdī jis nuuñ hameshāñ supani.āñ dī dhaar hai .

zindgī āzād kavitā, zindagī sangīt hai,

ruup hai sansār jisdā uh aganmī priit hai .

zindgī asgāh sāgar, zindgī tūfān hai,

husan dī ik chiNag chanchal zindgī dī jaan hai .

husan bin har aas annhī, sunn sāhas, valvale,

husan bin hai ishak, raahī thal 'cha jīkan din-Dhale .

ishak bin jīvan kufar hai, ishak hai merā ḳhudā,

zarri.āñ nuuñ lishak de ke ih da.e sūraj baNā .

ishak dī garmī toñ rahindā hai ravāñ merā lahū,

har ghaḌī betāb rakhdī hai kise dī jusatjū .

taḌaphdī us de binā hai is tarhāñ merī nazar-

sang-larze dā jiveñ bechain rahindā hai jigar .

kahi rahe ne hai navāñ koī shudā.ī phir rihā,

zindgī dā shauk hai har thaañ uḌaa.ī phir rihā .

hai hameshāñ raat kaalī yā ki ujlā chand hai,

zindgī mere la.ī ānand hī ānand hai .

zindgī nuuñ jīvNā hai par kaThin sabh toñ hunar,

darad bhari.ā dil hai jisdā uh kare isdī kadar .

jī rihā haañ maiñ aje tak es ikko aas te,

jī sakāñ shā.id kadī maiñ vī kise de vāste .

sah chalde ne jadon tak rajj ke jiwanga main,

har khushi gham de samundar Dik la piwanga main

mushakilan nun dekh ke hai josh ThaThan marda,

masat hathi di tarhan chinghaDda, lalkarda

kashaT jihDa wi mile mere, lai aksir hai,

maut di jo maut baNda, ih uh tikhaN tir hai

raat kali nal hi chann tarian di shan hai,

chha gia jo mushakilan te uh asal insan hai

nal samian de rahe laDda hameshan aadmi,

wang jugnun de jagae andaron hi raushani

kiun na rakkhan phir hameshan aas di kheti hari ?

chakkh ke dekhi hai main, ih zindgi hai ras-bhari

jiw-jantu, birachh-buTe aapNe hi ang ne,

zindgi de aks de hi ih anupam rang ne

zindgi hai sul zahiri, zindgi gulzar hai,

sinjdi jis nun hameshan supanian di dhaar hai

zindgi aazad kawita, zindagi sangit hai,

rup hai sansar jisda uh aganmi prit hai

zindgi asgah sagar, zindgi tufan hai,

husan di ek chiNag chanchal zindgi di jaan hai

husan bin har aas annhi, sunn sahas, walwale,

husan bin hai ishak, rahi thal 'cha jikan din-Dhale

ishak bin jiwan kufar hai, ishak hai mera KHuda,

zarrian nun lishak de ke ih dae suraj baNa

ishak di garmi ton rahinda hai rawan mera lahu,

har ghaDi betab rakhdi hai kise di jusatju

taDaphdi us de bina hai is tarhan meri nazar-

sang-larze da jiwen bechain rahinda hai jigar

kahi rahe ne hai nawan koi shudai phir riha,

zindgi da shauk hai har than uDai phir riha

hai hameshan raat kali ya ki ujla chand hai,

zindgi mere lai aanand hi aanand hai

zindgi nun jiwNa hai par kaThin sabh ton hunar,

darad bharia dil hai jisda uh kare isdi kadar

ji riha han main aje tak es ikko aas te,

ji sakan shaid kadi main wi kise de waste
