Zindagi yun hui basar tanha

Gulzaar sahib ke alfaaz... hard to believe that the same man came up with crap like geeli hansi peeli hansi (THUUUU) - well lets leave that for some other time.

Listen to the song

Zindagi yun hui basar tanhaa
qaafila saath aur safar tanhaa

apne saaye se chaunk jaate hain
umr guzri hai is qadar tanhaa

raat bhar bolte hain sannate
raat kaate koi kidhar tanhaa

din guzartaa nahin hai logon mein
raat hoti nahin basar tanhaa


humne darwaaze tak to dekhaa tha
phir na jaane gaye kidhar tanhaaa


life sure is a bitch..
