Ye waqt bahut mushkil hai

Yeh waqt bahut mushkil hai, dil thoda toota hai,

Jab se wo door gaya, kuch aur nahi dikhta hai.

Aankhon mein aansu, dil mein udaasi,

Khoya sa hoon main, jaise sab kuch ho gaya hai khaali.

Woh pal, woh din, sab yaad hai mujhe,

Jab takra gaye the, toh sab kuch tha apna sa.

Abhi yeh udaasi, yeh tanhaai,

Dil ki duniya mein bas ghum hi ghum hai saath.

Chhup ke aansu, chehre pe muskaan thi,

Dil ke kone mein, ek kahani adhoori thi.

Meri dunia ab udaas hai, kuch bhi sahi nahi,

Bas zindagi ki raah mein, ik khali jahan ki kami hai.

Dil ki baat kehne ka waqt tha, par ab sab kuch thum gaya,

Ab yeh zindagi, ek sadi ka safar lagta hai.

Yeh ghazab ka dard hai, jo zindagi mein chhupa hai,

Par har dard ke baad, ek nayi subah bhi zaroor aata hai.
