main aur meri aavaaragi

phirate hain kab se darbadar.. ab iss nagar ab us nagar,
ek dusare ke hamsafar.. main aur meri aavaaragi,

naa aashana har rahguzar.. naa meharbaan hai ek nazar,
jaayein to ab jaayein kidhar.. main aur meri aavaaragi, 

hum bhi kabhi aabaad the.. aise kahaan barbaad the,
be-fikr the aazaad the.. mashoor the dilshaad the,

woh chaal aisi chal gaye.. hum bujh gaye dil jal gaya,
nikale jala ke apanaa ghar.. main aur meri aavaaragi, 

thi jis ki baatein dilnashi.. usse ajab thi guftaguu,
phir yun huaa woh kho gayi aur mujh ko zid si ho gayi,
laayenge us ko dhuund kar.. main aur meri aavaaragi, 

yeh dil hi tha jo sah gaya.. woh baat aisi keh gaya,
kahane ko phir kya rah gaya.. ashkon ka dariya beh gaya,

jab keh kar woh dilbar gaye, unke liye hum mar gaye,
rote hain us ko raat bhar.. main aur meri aavaaragi, 

ab ghum uthaayein kis liye.. yeh dil jalaayein kis liye?
aanshu bahaayein kis liye.. yuun jaan gawaayein kis liye?

peshaa na ho jis ka sitam.. dhundenge ab aisa sanam,
hoha kahin to kargar.. main aur meri aavaaragi, 

aasaar hain sab khot ke.. imkaan hain sab chot ke,
ghar band hain sab kot ke.. ab khatam hai sab totake,

kismat ka sab yeh khel hai.. andher hi andher hai,
aise hue hain beasar.. main aur meri aavaaragi, 

jab humdam-o-humraaz tha.. tab aur hi andaaz tha,
ab soz hai tab saaz tha.. ab sharm hai tab naaz tha,

ab mujh se ho to ho bhi kya.. ho saath woh to bhi kya?
ek behunar ek besabar.. main aur meri aavaaragi.
