Na jaane kab seUmeedain kuch baki hainMujhe phir bhi teri yaad kyun aati hai?
Na jaane kab seDoor jitna bhi tum mujhse paas tere mainAb toh aadat si hai mujhko aise jeene mainZindagi se koi shikwa bhi nahi haiAb toh zinda hun main iss neele asmaan mainChaahat aisi hai yeh teri badhti jayeAahat aise hai yeh teri mujhko satayeYaadain gehri hain yeh kitni dil doob jayeAur aankhon main yeh ghum num ban jayeAb toh aadat si hai mujhko aise jeene mainSabhi raatain hainSabhi baatain hainBhula do unhainMitta do unhainAb toh aadat si hai mujhko
