Adhoori baat

Chitthiyon mein likhe humne,

Sapne jo kabhi sach na hue,

Tasveeron se suljha liya,

Chehre jo kabhi mil na paaye.

Dooriyon ke is dariya mein,

Pal pal tujhe socha humne,

Par haathon ki lakeeron mein,

Teri ungliyaan likhi na jaa paayi.

Chaand dekh kar soyi main,

Tere waqt ke hisaabon mein,

Apna din badalti rahi.

Par ek subah jab aankh khuli,

Sandeshe bhi aana band hue,

Na koi alvida, na koi wajah,

Bas khamoshi reh gayi beech mein.

Socha tha milenge kabhi,

Woh pal kabhi aayega,

Par waqt ne likha,

Kahaani adhoori hi rahegi.

Tu tha… par paas kabhi na tha,

Dil ka raaz keh na paayi main.

Woh aakhri lafz jo kehne the,

Hawaon mein kahin kho gaye…

Hum adhoore… rahe adhoore.
