Jindgi ki Shaam

[Chaand]

Kabhi to jindgi ki shaam hogi
Ye jamaane kabhi to yaad aayeNge,
Na’jaane kaise gujreNge tab din
Na’jaane tab ye chehre keise ho jaaeNge,

Bachpan or jawaani ki wo
Saari baateiN yaad aayeNgi,
Kya tab bhi itni saMvednaaeN hoNgi
Ke aankheiN tak bheeg jaaeNgi,

Kitne suthre (saaf) hoNge ham tab tak
Kitne usuloN ko bhool jaayeNge,
Kitna seekha hoga jindgi se
Jo apnoN me baant paayeNge.

Chaand

Ye jindgi ek safar hi to hai
Har safar me padaav aate haiN,
Aksar padaavoN me log milte haiN
Or apne se ban jaate haiN.
