aake bas chale jaate hain yeh log

yeh waqt aaj mere sath hai phir, 
yeh waqt bhi dheere se sath kyu chhord deta hai?  

koi hamein dil mein apne basata hai phir, 
apne dil mein se kyu nikal deta hai? 

pehle aapni zindagi hamein bana leta hai, 
phir humko hi uski zindagi mein se kyu mita hai? 

kuch pal ke liye hamari zindagi ban jata hai, 
aur phir hamein bataye bina hi,
zindagi mein se kyu chala jata hai? 

karte rehte hai pyaar ki hamesha mithi baatein yeh,
par woh pyaar ke naam ka hi mazak kyu bana jata hai? 

aake bas chale jaate hain,  yeh log pyar ka khel khel ke, 
aur hamari zindagi ko ek mazak kyu bana jate hain?
