ab to ghabraa ke ye kahte haiN k mar jaa_eNge
mar k bhii chain na paayaa to kidhar jaa_eNge
Wrote the Poet Laureate of the last Mughal, Bahadur Shah Zafar - Ibrahim Zauq
Now hear an antara of "dekhaa na haay re sochaa na" in Bombay To Goa (1972), written by Rajinder Krishan:
"miT jaa_eNge mar jaayeNge, kaam koii kar jaa_eNge
mar ke bhii chain na mile, to jaa_eNge yaaro kahaaN"

raahii manvaa dukh kii chintaa
Listen to Fani Badayuni's Ghazal:
goyaa nahii.n taGHaaful-o-tamkii.n me.n ko_ii farq
itnii bhii aadmii ko umiid-e-karam na ho
GHam bhii guzashtanii hai KHushii bhii guzashtanii
kar GHam ko iKHtiyaar ke guzre to GHam na ho.
manzuur har navishta-e-taqdiir hai mujhe
lekin vo jis me.n harf-e-tamanna raqam na ho
har lamha-e-hayaat hai begaana-e-hayaat
faanii hayaat se hii ibaarat adam na ho.
Majrooh expressed the same thought as the second she'r at the beginning of raahii manvaa dukh kii chintaa kyuu.n sataatii hai in Dosti (1964)
goyaa nahii.n taGHaaful-o-tamkii.n me.n ko_ii farq
itnii bhii aadmii ko umiid-e-karam na ho
GHam bhii guzashtanii hai KHushii bhii guzashtanii
kar GHam ko iKHtiyaar ke guzre to GHam na ho.
manzuur har navishta-e-taqdiir hai mujhe
lekin vo jis me.n harf-e-tamanna raqam na ho
har lamha-e-hayaat hai begaana-e-hayaat
faanii hayaat se hii ibaarat adam na ho.
