Waqt to Lagega:

Bhula denge tumko, zara sabr to rakho…

Arz kiya hai…

Bhulaa denge tumko, zara sabr to rakho,
Rag-rag mein base ho, thoda waqt to lagega.

Dil ko samjhaane ki koshish kar rahe hain,
Par dil bhi ajeeb hai…
Jisne dard diya, wahi aaj tak usko tasalli deta jaa raha hai.
Is uljhan ko suljhaane mein waqt lagega.

Tum gaye to laga sab khatm ho gaya,
Par phir pata chala…
Kuch cheezein khatm hoti hi nahi,
Bas rooh ke kisi kone mein chup kar roti rehti hain.
Un chup aansuon ko rokne mein waqt lagega.

Tanhai ka andhera bhi ab apna sa lagne laga hai,
Jaise saalon se wohi ek dost ho
Jo bina pooche saath baith jaaye.
Us tanhai ko be-aasar karne mein waqt lagega.

Tumhari awaaz, tumhari khamoshi,
Dono hi rooh mein kisi sur ki tarah gunjte hain.
In gunjti hui saazishon ko mitaane mein waqt lagega.

Kabhi kabhi lagta hai tum bas ek yaad nahi,
Ek imtihan ho…
Jo dil aur rooh ko alag-alag kasauti pe parakh raha hai.
Us imtihan ko samajhne mein waqt lagega.

Mohabbat ne humein tod bhi diya, jod bhi diya,
Tod is qadar ke khud se rooth gaye…
Aur jod is kadar ke Rab ki taraf palat gaye.
Iss palatne ki safar mein waqt lagega.

Tumse alag hokar humne yeh bhi seekha ke
Kuch rishton ka hisaab insaan nahi, waqt likhta hai…
Aur waqt jab faisla karta hai
To ehsaas ki saari zameene hil jaati hain.
Un zameenon ko phir se jamaane mein waqt lagega.

Rooh ke andar ek khaali jagah ban gayi hai tumhaare baad,
Jise hum bharna bhi chaahe to bhar nahi sakte…
Bas us khaali jagah ko qabool karna seekh rahe hain.
Qabooliyat ko samajhne mein waqt lagega.

Aur sach to yeh hai, Zulfikar bhai…
Hum tumhe bhool bhi dein
To bhi apni rooh ko kaise samjhaayenge
Ke jisne dard diya, wahi kabhi dawa bhi tha…
Iss sach ko dil se utaarne mein waqt lagega.

Isliye…
Bhulaa toh denge tumko, kabhi na kabhi…
Magar rooh se nikalne mein tumhe,
Shayad poori zindagi lag jaaye.
