Roshni Door Nahi

Raat dheere dheere utar rahi,

Hawa kuch purani baatein suna rahi,

Aur main phir wahi —

Raaston se zyada khud ko dhoond raha hoon.

(Verse 1)

Aankhon mein sapne aur kandhon pe bojh,

Dil mein sawal aur chehre pe soch,

Shehar ki roshni peeche reh gayi,

Par dil ki awaaz kabhi kam na hui.

Mudte hue raaste kuch kehte rahe,

Jo khoya tha hum use dhoondte rahe,

Har mod pe ek naya imtihaan tha,

Par har haar mein bhi thoda armaan tha.

(Pre-Chorus)

Na jaldi mujhe, na rukna mujhe,

Jo banna hai khud hi banna mujhe,

Khamoshi bhi ab geet si lage,

Aur hawa bhi mera naam kahe.

(Chorus)

Main chal pada hoon door kahin,

Jahan sapne toot ke bikharte nahi,

Main dekh raha hoon upar sitare,

Jaise woh bhi mere ishare.

Raat agar lambi ho jaaye,

Subah bhi kahin se aa jaaye,

Main rukunga nahi is dafa,

Dil ne khud se yeh vaada kiya.

(Verse 2)

Yaad hai woh din jab sab mushkil tha,

Har kadam pe lagta manzil door tha,

Par waqt ne sikhaya dheere chalna,

Aur andheron mein bhi roshni rakhna.

Ab jo hawa chehre ko chhooti hai,

Lagta har kami bhi zaroori thi,

Har aansu ne kuch likh diya,

Har safar ne mujhe badal diya.

(Bridge)

Main awaaz hoon ya kahani hoon,

Main safar hoon ya nishani hoon,

Jo bhi hoon, ab apna hoon,

Khud se pehli baar mila hoon.

(Final Chorus)

Main chal pada hoon bina wajah,

Bas dil ne kaha aur ho gaya,

Na peeche dekhu, na rukne ka darr,

Ab mera hai yeh poora safar.

Sitare upar, hawa saa

Dil mein geet aur khula aasman,

Kal jo hoga dekha jayega,

Aaj main hoon aur mera jahaan.

(Outro)

Raat dheere dheere dhal jayegi,

Subah phir ek geet layegi,

Aur main phir chal padunga —

Khud ko thoda aur paane.
