yeh un dino ki baat hai jab hum zinda hua karte the

un dino ki baat hai ki hum bhi kabhi kuch ehsaas karte the,
nazre mili thi kisi se jab jaage se khwaabon mein rehte the,

honton pe taale laga mann se naa jaane kya kya kehte the,
ki kara tha ek din ekrar to din mein soye khwaabon mein khoye rehte the,

aur mila jawab unka bhi haan mein to dharti pe kahan rehte the,
badi baat to aag lagi thi kabhi unke dil mein woh humse kehte the,

lagta tha har pal jannat jab woh kareeb rehte the,
honton pe muskan hoti thi aise mere naseeb rehte the,

din beete, badi bekrari jab woh humse door rehte the,
baju-kat humare kandhe se woh kisi aur ki bahon mein rehte the,

ankhon mein humari reh kar behemi se mirch uneme dhoke ki bharte the,
laga aag hamari basti mein, apni duniya mein ujaale woh karte the..

talwar dhoke ki khake bhi hum dard se naa karhaya karte the,
badte dard ko seene mein chupaye aahein tannhai mein bhara karte the,

jalte hue har pal hum har pal yun tarsa karte the,
anshu pee ke apne hi apni pyas bujhaya karte the,

angaron pe chal ke kati sari zindagi, uff naa hum kiya karte the,
dukh na kerna sunn ke baat un dino ki hai jab hum zinda hua karte the.
