Fate & the Meaning of Life

***This is not written by me. Credit goes to the original writer, somewhere on this Internet. Bless the soul who put words to these thoughts of countless others.***

Baksh deta hai khuda unko,

Jinki kismat kharab hoti hai,

Wo hargiz nahi bakshe jaate hain,

Jinki niyat kharab hoti hai.

Na mera ek hoga, na tera lakh hoga,

Na tareef teri hogi, na mazaak mera hoga

Guroor na kar shahe shareer ka,

Mera bhi khaak hoga, tera bhi khaak hoga

Zindagi bhar branded branded karne walon,

Yaad rakhna kafan ka koi brand nahi hota

Koi ro kar dil behlata hai,

Aur koi haske dard chupata hai

Kya karamaat hai kudrat ka,

Zinda insaan pani me doob jata hai,

Aur murda tair kar dikhata hai,

Maut ko dekha to nahi par shayad wo bahut khoobsurat hogi,

Kambakht! Jo bhi usse milta hai,

Jeena chhod deta hai!

Gazab ki ekta dekhi logon ki zamaane mein,

Zindon ko girane me aur murdon ko uthane mein,

Zindagi me na jaane kaunsi baat aakhri hogi,

Na jaane kaunsi raat aakhri hogi,

Milte julte baatein karte raho yaaron,

Ek doosre se na jaane kaunsi mulaqaat

Aakhri hogi!
