Tere chehre ka noor
Jaise heera kohinoor
Tum aao na paas mere
Kyun rehte ho door door
Aao iss lamhe mein
Apni saari zindagi jilein
Na koi darr na koi vair
Aur nahin koi ghair
Bas ek tu, aur ek main
Hamari choti si ek duniya
Jahan pal pal bikhrein khushian
Aur, chalta rahe roothna manana
Tumhari muskurahat mein chupi hai
Voh har ek baat
Jis ke liye
Main pal pal jeeta hoon
Mat karo kisi ke liye bhi itna
Ke unka har ek lafaz tumhe khali kar jaye
Mat karo bharosa kisi pe bhi itna
Ke uske toot jane pe, tum khud hi toot jayo
Aisa kyun hota hai har bar
Ke koi apna hi sabse zyada chaut poh chahta hai
Bas, bauhat hua
Thak gaya hoon chaut kha kha kar
Kya karein, aab to har ek cheez par se yakeen uth sa gaya hai
Par kyun main tab bhi khud ko sambahal nahin pata
Aisa kyun samajhte hain khamoshi ko kamzori
Shayad voh jante hain har ek lafaz ki gehrayi
Aab to bas ek ummeed ki talash hai
Jo insaniat ke taraf ishara kare
Jahan hum apne jazbaton ko dikha sake aur samajh sake
Kyun ki voh humari takat hoti hai, kamzori nahin
Kaisa hai yeh safar zindagi ka
Jo kabhi kabhi samajh nahin aata
Bas, ek aisi paheli ka roop leh rahi hai
Jo aab ulajti hi ja rahi hai
Samaaj, sarkar, mazab ya phir khud main
Kaun si woh ek chabi hai jo yeh raaz khol sake
Koi aab yeh to bata do ke main kya karoon
Lagta hai jaise har koi mera dushman hai
Kuch kahoon to bura, kuch na kahoon to bura
Kahan jaoon, kise kahoon yeh dil ki jo baat hai
Kya yeh sab mile hue to nahin?
Bas! Bauhat ho gaya! Aab aur nahin!
Koi aab yeh to bata de meri koi jaga hai bhi ke nahin
Mujhe koi samajh ne ke liye samajhta hai ke nahin
Kya karoon, aab to apne bhi paraye lagne lage hain
Aab to bas, koi to mujhe mera vajood samjhado
Yeh kaisa dard hai jo sine mein pal raha hai
Lagta hai jaise koi karz chukana baki hai
Kahan jaoon, kise kahoon yeh dabi dabi jo baat hai
Ae sun khuda, ek tum hi to mera humraaz hai
Humain na chahiye yeh khushia, yeh naam aur shauhrat
Bas ek sukoon ki talash hai
Jis ke liye main dar dar bhatakta hoon
Aab to yeh tanhai bhi shor se bharne lagi hai
Ek aisa shor, jo kabhi shant nahin hota
Ek aisa shor, jo mujhe andar hi andar kha raha hai
Ek aisa shor, jo ek kisam ki saza ban rahi hai
Ek aisa shor, jo mujhe khud se aankhen nahin milane deta
Aab kisko sunaoon yeh mann ka jo haal hai
Koi to hoga jo mujhe samajh payega
Koi aisi jaga to hogi jahan mujhe rahat mile
Aur mujhe yakeen hai voh ek tumhara hi darbar hai
sab apni duniya mein mast hain
To kaisa yeh kasht hai
Kyun samajhte ho khud ko akela
Jab aaye mushkil ki gharian
Jao! Haath barao! Kya pata koi thaam hi le
Jo dikhaega tumhe raasta
Samajhna usme hai Rab vasda
Kar bande khud pe yakeen
Aur tod de yeh darr ki zanjeer
Dhundo khud ko ek naye sire se
Ek nayi ummid, ek nayi shuruat
Bas dikhado ke tum bhi kisi se kam nahin
Logon ka to kam hai tamasha banana
To kyun tum khud ko sambhal nahin pata
Iss dhong ki mein, dhundo woh mann ke sache
Jo samajh paye tumhari uljhane
Zindagi ke kitne roop hain, kabhi dhoop hai to kabhi chaon hai
Tum bas itna yaad rakhna, ke tumhe koi sambhalne wala zaroor hai
