Aaj bas chup chaap kisi kone mein baithne aayi hoon
Apni aap-biti aaj sunane aayi hoon
Akele baith baith ke thak chuki hoon
Jhoothe thahake maar maar ke khokli ho chuki hoon
Aaj bas kuch do pal tumse baantne aayi hoon
Haar gayi hoon par ladh rahi hoon
Ghut ghut ke saansein bhar rahi hoon
Aaj bas dil ka haal sunane aayi hoon
Kisi kone mein baith, aaj rone aayi hoon
Purane zakhm bharne aayi hoon
Kuch nayi yaadein banane aayi hoon
Barso ka sailab umadh raha hai
Dil par maano patthar bankar baith raha hai
Beete kal ko peeche chod, aage badhne aayi hoon
Koi ghila - shikwa karne nahi, bas dil halka karne aayi hoon
Apne-paraye ka fark bahut achchi tarah samajh chuki hoon
Apne hi haathon se apne aanshu poch chuki hoon
Sapne dekhne ka shauk purana tha,
Apni asliyat, apni sachchai aaj apnane aayi hoon
Koi sahara nah tha kabhi, aur na hi maangne aayi hoon
Bas apne dum pe aaj wapas jeene aayi hoon
Par pehle, kuch der thamne aayi hoon
Do pal sukun se baithne aayi hoon
Bas, kuch minuton ke liye, ek kone mein baith
Do aansu bahane aayi hoon.
