ta.ng aa chuke hai.n kashmakash\-e\-zindagii se ham 
Thukaraa nA de.n jahaa.N ko kahii.n bedilI se ham 
ta.ng aa chuke 

lo aaj hamane to.D diyaa, rishtaa\-e\-ummId \- 2
lo ab kabhI gilaa nA kare.nge kisii se ham 
Thukaraa nA de.n jahaa.N ko kahii.n bedilI se ham 
ta.ng aa chuke 

gar zindagii me.n mil gaye phir ittafaaq se \- 2
puuchhe.nge apanaa haal terI bebasI se ham 
Thukaraa nA de.n jahaa.N ko kahii.n bedilI se ham 
ta.ng aa chuke 

o aasamaan vAle kabhI to nigaah kar \- 2
ab tak ye zulm sahate rahe khaamoshI se ham 
Thukaraa nA de.n jahaa.N ko kahii.n bedilI se ham 
ta.ng aa chuke 
ta.ng aa chuke hai.n kashmakash\-e\-zindagii se ham 
ta.ng aa chuke 
##
the last verse was simplified again from the original: 
##
allaah re fareb\-e\-mashIyat ke aaj tak 
duniyaa ke zulm sahate rahe khaamoshii se ham 
##
[##mashIyat##=the will of god] 
another good one from the same ghazal is: 
##
maayuusii\-e\-maal\-e\-mohabbat nA puuchhiye 
apano.n se pesh aaye hai.n begaanagii se ham 
##
[##maal##=termination, also, consequence]

% Rafi's version from Pyasa. Music S D Burman
ta.ng aa chuke hai.n kashmakash\-e\-zi.ndagii se ham
Thukaraa na de jahaa.N ko kahii.n bedilii se ham

ham Gam_zadaa hai.n laaye kahaa.N se khushii ke giit
de.nge vahii jo paaye.nge is zi.ndagii se ham

ubhare.nge ek baar abhii dil ke valavale
maanaa kii dab gaye hai.n Gam\-e\-zi.ndagii se ham

lo aaj hamane to.D diyaa rishtaa\-e\-ummiid
lo ab kabhii bhii gilaa na kare.nge kisii se ham
