Rafi Sahaab’s another rare gem: Kaisee Mehfil Hai Yeh...
Original Lyrics Transliterated/Translated into English by NASIR ALI:

Note: The lyrics reflect a critique of societal norms and the lack of genuine human connection in such settings while questioning the authenticity of the people present and the value of participating in such gatherings

Kaisee mehfil hai yeh,

Kaisee mehfil hai yeh,

 All the world's a stage, And all the men and women merely players; They have their exits and their entrances, And one man in his time plays many parts, His acts being seven ages.
