Masoom namaazi ki tarah...

A Keyrun Rao original

Ishq tera chaaha tha, jaane ye kya mila
Ek muskaan chaahi, kyon mujhe diya rula
Daulatein hi maang leta is jahaan ki saari
Jaane tu mujhe hi is kadar kyon mila?

Masoom namaazi ki tarah ek ummeed ki
Phir kyon chal pada dard ka aisa silsila

Khushi ki talab thi, to muskuraana seekha
Tujh mein socha tha wo sab kuchh dikha
Ek bada sa ghaanv mujhe raseed hua
Aisa phir kyon mere hi saath mein hua?

Masoon namaazi ki tarah ek ummeed ki
Phir kyon chhalni hua mere is dil ka raasta

Sach hai, ke deewangi mein rakha kya hai
Insaan shaayad tanhaa hi bada achcha hai
Chaaho kisiko, aur kho bhi do bewajah
Tum bataao, kya marr jaana hi achcha hai?

Masoom namaazi ki tarah ek ummeed ki
Phir kyon yeh dard hai seene mein hai utha

Paise kamaa lete hain, kharch kar dete hain
Par kyon sab isiko hi jeene ka naam dete hain?
Jab paise hi nahin they, bas ek meri tu thi
Is khayaal mein bhi to hum jee hi lete hain...

Masoon namaazi ki tarah ek ummeed ki
Phir kyon tu mujhko barson mein nahin mila?

Bas ek tujhe maanga, aur kuchh nahin chaaha
Jaane kab tak chalega ye dard ka zaalim silsila
Ab tu toh hai nahin, bas teri kuchh yaadein hain
Itna bataa de mujhe, in saanson ka karoon kya?

Masoon namaazi ki tarah ek ummeed ki
Phir kyon main aaj bhi tere liye zinda raha?
