Baat un dino ki hai ye

Baat un dino ki hai ye.
Ki ye dil mere paas tha.

Baat un dino ki hai ye.
Na koi lamha udaas tha.

Baat un dino ki hai ye.
Tumhe mujhpe aitbaar tha.

Baat un dino ki hai ye.
Mujhko bhi to pyar tha.

Ab ye kya batayein kise.
Dil ka mere kya haal tha.

Tum jo gaye rooth kar.
Takhleeq(1) ya Ikhtitam(2) tha.

Ab jo tanhayee hai meri.
Iska bhi kya kaam tha.

Par ab jo pi hi liya.
Kal ye bas ek jaam tha.

Baat un dino ki hai ye.
Humko jeene ka maan tha.

Baat un dino ki hai ye.
Ki ye dil mere paas tha.

 

1- Creation 2-End

It is one of those rare poems of mine that I have not thought in prose but have sung it all through. Even while writing I was singing it and not narrating it to myself.
