Ek Raat

“Har Kahani mein kai raate hoti hai, unn raato se hi toh kahani hoti hai.
Unhi raato mein se nikli hai yeh kahai, kehlati Ek Raat”

Waqt k aane aur jaane se pareh,
kat rahi thi zindagi kuch iss tarah,
Betabiya toh bass maan mein reh gai,
Aisi kati thi woh Ek Raat kuch iss tarah.

Saalo saal ka wada na raha,
Jisse kiya tha wada woh khud na raha,
Wado ki farmaish pesh karta raha woh kuch is tarah,
Aisi kati thi woh Ek Raat kuch iss tarah.

Andhere mein logo ko khojta chala gaya woh,
Ujhale mein apno ko bhulata chala gaya woh,
farak andhere aur ujhale ka samjha usne kuch iss tarah,
Aisi kati thi woh Ek Raat kuch iss tarah.

Samaye se halat puche,
Toh Zindagi ki khabar mili,
Mili thi woh nazar unse kuch iss tarah,
Aisi kati thi woh Ek Raat kuch iss tarah.

Mushkilo ki rah mein umeed toh hogi,
Himmat rakh bande, manzil haasil toh hogi,
Waqt ki deri ko samjha usne kuch iss tarah,
Aisi Kati thi woh Ek Raat kuch iss tarah.
