Ek zamana tha

 Ek zamana tha

Jab hum zindagi ko kareeb se dekh the the
Jab hum zindagi ko kareeb se mehsoos karte the

Ek zamana tha

Jab hum baarish me naach te aur nachadete the
Jab hum phoolon ki mehek ke liye ruk jaate the
Jab hum bheegi dharti ki khushboo ko apna de the
Jab hum ped ke patte ke saath hava me jhoom jaate the

Ek zamana tha

Jab hum parindey ko dekh kar muskaan karte the
Jab hum ajnabi ko apna ley te the
Jab hum dhoono ke saath gun guna ley te the
Aur geeto me kho jaate the

Aur sanate me apne aap ko dhoond le te the

Ek zamana tha
Jab hum dooniya ghoom na chahatey the
Jab hum sapne dekha karte the
Jab hum logo ki acchayai pe vishwas karte the
Jab hum duniya ki acchayai chhate the
Jab hum asha ki booniyad pe chala करते थे

Ek zamana tha
Jab hum zindagi ko kareeb se dekha karte the

Phir se hum ko mehsoos Karna he

Woh baarish ke pal
Woh hava me jhoomna
Woh phoolon ki mehek
Woh bheegi  ki khushboo

Woh dillo ke saath judjaana

Phir hum ko zindagi ko kareeb se dekhna hai

Lekin uske liye ee dil
Thoda udna padey ga
Apni anubhav ki bandhi hui zanjeero ko todna hoga
Apne dar ko paar karna hoga

Apne aap par aur zindagi pey vishwas lana hoga

Apne aap ko Azaad karna hoga

To phir se woh zamana aayega
Jab hum zindagi ko kareeb se mehsoos karenge
Jab hum zindagi ko kareeb se dekhenge
