Suraj abhi kuch der pehle dooba tha,
Thoda andhiyara sa bhi lagta tha,
Sar jo humne uthaya aur,
yeh aankhein bhi thodi ghumai.
To yeh taaron ka gulistaan tha,
aur ek ujala sa chandrama tha,
dur dur tak khula aasmaan tha,
kshitiz bhi aaj to ruka tha.
woh aankhein bhi apni thi,
aur woh samaa bhi apna sa,
phir bhi kuch adhoora sa tha,
haathon main uska haath na tha.
aankhein thi num, aur gala bhara sa,
yaadon main tha woh thoda ghula sa.
palkon to humne kiya thoda jhuka sa,
aur deedar hua uska zara zara sa.
