Waqt nikal jaata, fir bhi baatein reh jaati hai !
Shaam ke baad subah aani hain, is din ko bhi dhal jaana hain;
Par humesha teri yaad sataani.
Waqt moothi se fisal chuka, par hum aaj bhi wahi khadhe hain tere aane ki aas leke.
Har raasta naya sa lagne laga, har lamha maano beeta hua kal lagne laga.
Tere jaane se har pal paraya bann gaya,
Zindagi ka lamha thoda chhota padh gaya.
Jab se jaana tumhara nahi hain saath mere saath, hone laga yoon main sabse kuch khafa-khafa
Is raah pe nikal toh padhe hain,
fir bhi naa jaane kyun lag raha hain mujhe darr ki kahi gum naa ho jao fir se main yoon…
Log khuda ki talaash mein rehte hai…
par maine to apna khuda khud hi taiy kar liya tha boht pehle hi,
lekin “us” khuda ko “mere” khuda se is tarah jalan the…
ki usne mere khuda ko mujhse door kar dia….
