Zindagi muskuraai bhi thi

jab pehli baar mili thi mujhse, shamraai bhi thi
jhuki jhuki si nazron se apne, muskuraai bhi thi

waise to ajeeb hi rang dikhaati rahi hai zindagi
hamaare hi dhun pe tab zindagi gungunaai bhi thi

aaj tak to kabhi huwaa nahi, hamaare saath aisaa
kismat ne shaayad hamaare tab li angdaai bhi thi

yun to aadat ho chuki thi tanhaa rehne ki humein
kuch pal hi sahi magar duur huwi tanhaai bhi thi

hum samajhte they ki kisi ko mohabbat nahi humse
dabey dabey paaon se chalke mohabbat aai bhi thi
