Jee Uttha

Subah aaj thodi si alag thi,

jaise hawa ne mera naam pukaara ho.

Dil halki si ghabrahat mein tha,

par lag raha tha… aaj tu zaroor aayegi woh.

Jo baatein main kabse soch raha tha,

aaj unhe sidhe-sidhe kehna tha.

Hawa galo se halki si takrai,

jaise tu keh rahi ho… “chal, aaj milna tha.”

Tu mili toh dil jee utha,

Tu mili toh dil jee utha.

Jab tu saamne aayi,

mann ek second ko bas thoda sa ruk gaya.

Teri aankhon ki narmahat dekh kar,

andar ek halka sa khilna mehsoos hua.

Teri muskurahat ne bina bole hi,

dil mein ek naya sa sukoon bhar diya.

Baaqi sab awaazein peeche reh gayi,

tu hi bas mujhe clearly sunai diya.

Tu mili toh dil jee utha,

Tu mili toh dil jee utha.

Jab main tujhe wapas chhod ke mud raha tha,

dil ne ek pal ko jaise tham sa liya.

Pata tha phir milenge hum,

par aaj ki shaam ko thoda aur rokna tha.

Aakhri jhappi ki wo garmahat,

ghar pahunchkar bhi saath hi rahi.

Tu door jaake bhi door nahi lagi—

jaise mere aas-paas hi halki si basi.

Tu mili toh dil jee utha,

Tu mili toh dil jee utha…

Tu mili toh…

dil jee utha.
