Aawargi Hamari

aavaaragi hamaari pyaari-si thi kabhi jo
vahi aaj hamako rulaane lagi hai
jo bharati thi dil mein tarange hamesha
vahi aaj dil ko jalaane lagi hai
aavaaragi hamaari

na koi gam na gila na koi shugaha ka nishaan
paayi thi har khushi har suquun hamako tha
nagame the, bahaaron ke tarannum har kaheen
phir bhi kyon ham bhataka kiye
yah tu hi bataa, aavaaragee, aavaaragi
aavaaragi hamaari …

khaamoshiyaan hain har taraf, tanhaaiyaan hain har taraf
yaadon ke bhanvar se ab kaise nikalen
saathi na raha koi na koi hamasafar
zindagi ke safen par likhane ko
hai ab to bas aavaaragee, aavaaragi
aavaaragi hamaari …
