Bachpan

Waqt aisa kabhi dekha na tha

Waqt aisa kabhi socha na tha,

Duniya bahut haseen thi tab

Waqt aisa kabhi hota na tha

Chhoti si duniya thi

Chhote se khwaab the

Chhoti-chhoti khushiyan thi

Magar aaj ki tarah nakaab na the

Hum bas jeetna seekhe the

Aur har waqt hasna seekhe the

Kaise badla ye waqt aaj sochta hoon main

Magar kar bhi kya sakta hoon kyunki ye waqt kisi ka dost nahin

Aaj dekhta hoon pichhe to mere bachpan ki laash veeran padi hai

jise main na to jala paata hoon

aur na hi dafna paata hoon.
