Some of my favourite Hindi film songs that use these words, Pal meaning moment and Jeevan meaning Life.
Jeevan se bhari teri aankhen majboor karein jeene ke liye, a rich, poignant song because it is sung by a terminally ill Rajesh Khanna in the film Safar (not suffer).
Ek pal ka jeena, phir to hai jaana from Hrithik Roshan's debut film, tuned by Rajesh Roshan and sung by Lucky Ali, a singer that I like a lot- no idea where he has disappeared.
Aane wala pal jaane wala hai, a classic Kishore Kumar song from Gol Maal (old, the only one I recognise). Great philosophy.
Pal bhar ke liye koi hamein pyaar kar le, sung on screen by Dev Anand in his inimitable style (unhinged neck et al), wooing a gorgeous Hema Malini in Johny Mera Naam. Kalyanji Anandji were at their peak music-making, apart from Don and Muqaddar ka Sikandar a little later.
Yeh jeevan hai, is jeevan ka, yehi hai, yeahi hai rang roop, thode gham hain, thodi khushiyan...absolutely beautiful, lyrical, soothing.

maybe ek pal mein he got lucky and found an alley to disappear?
I thought only wanted criminals went underground..but Lucky after all is lucky!
Lucky Ali, after the death of Mahmood, the comedian, took what was termed as his 'sanyaas'. He lives at the farm house now, where his father lived the last few days of his life.
