Yeh Duniya
- Sahir Ludhianvi
Yeh mehlon, ye takhton, ye taajon ki duniya
Yeh insaan ke dushman samaajon ki duniya
Yeh daulat ke bhookhe rivaazon ki duniya
Yeh duniya agar mil bhi jaaye toh kya hai
Yeh duniya agar mil bhi jaaye toh kya hai
Har ek jism ghayal, har ek rooh pyaasi
Nigaahon mein uljhan, dilon mein udaasi
Yeh duniya hai yaan alam-e-badhavaasi
Yeh duniya agar mil bhi jaaye toh kya hai
Jahaan ek khilauna hai inasaan ki hasti
Ye basti hai murda-paraston ki basti
Jahan aur jeevan se hai maut sasti
Yeh duniya agar mil bhi jaaye toh kya hai
Javani bhatakti hai bezaar bankar
Javaan jism sajtey hain baazaar bankar
Jahaan pyaar hota hai vyapaar bankar
Yeh duniya agar mil bhi jaaye toh kya hai
Yeh duniya jahaan aadmi kuch nahin hai
Wafa kuch nahin, dosti kuch nahin hai
Jahaan pyaar ki qadr hii kuch nahin hai
Yeh duniya agar mil bhi jaaye toh kya hai
Jalaa do, jalaa do issey, phoonk daalo yeh duniya
Mere saamne se hata lo yeh duniya
Tumhari hai tum hii sambhalo ye duniya
Ye duniya agar mil bhi jaaye toh kya hai
Yeh duniya agar mil bhi jaaye toh kya hai
From Guru Dutt's classic, "Pyaasa", which also happens to be one of my favourite movies.

Nice blog! i've always been a Saahir fan ... "main zindagi ka saath .." and many other songs .... he rocks!
where were all of you all these years...meethidhoop, rambler and you?
we don't know each other but i love gussing and understanding and appreciating you through your blogs...
you don't know me and knowing the boring details are not that important but like you i also tremble when i read a sahir poem, my heart also stops when i read neruda poem and i also sigh when i reada gulzar poems...that i guess makes us soul sisters...what else is needed?
