Apne Paraye

Parayo se zyaada apno se dar lagne laga hai
pyaar se zyaada nafrath suhaana lagne laga hai
Thappad se zyaada apno ke saath se dar lagne laga hai
vadon se zyada naumeede par bharosa hone laga hai

Aane waale kal ka kya bharosa
beethe aaj ki shukraguzaar hoon
Is umeed se ki zindagi beeth jaaye is aaj se
koi aur aaj na aaye is aaj se

kehthe hai jiyo jaise kal na ho
haso jaise koi gum na ho
lekin main chahoon
jiyu aaj jaise kal kabhi na aaye
hasu aise ki hasi main dhadkan rukh jaaye

Parayon se tokar khao
tho paraya kehkar bhulaaya ja sakhtha hai
lekin apno se dhoka khao
tho kya kehkar dil ko sambhala ja sakhtha hai

zindagi ki is ladai main
itni sakhth ho gayi hoon main
mere dard na dikhe jaise
apno ke dard ko saamajhna bhi
zaroori nahi samajhthi main

Poori zindagi, din ki shuruwaath us aane waale din ke swagath main hothi thi
pyar ke baad din ki shuruwaath kisi ke sapne sajaye shuru hothi thi
phir jo waqt badla ki din ka ujaala aur raath ke andhere main pharak kaha tha
toot gayi is kadar ki ujaale se ujaala bhi andhera lagtha tha
Is toote waqt ki aadhath hui tho,
din ki shuruwaath doobe dil ki naumeedi se hothi thi,
par ab itna sudhaar aa chuka hai waqt main
Ki na dard ka ehsaas hai, na koi naumeedi ki chubhan
na koi asra na koi arzoo ya lagan

Is ehsaas main bhi khudh ka sukoon hai
Sukhoon hi sukoon hai!
