Main Dukhi Nahi Tha,
Us Waqt Jab Ek Toofan Meri Jindgi Ko
Or Mere Ashiyane Ko Ek Hi Pal Me Mita Gaya
Or Main Koi Shikwa Bhi Na Kar Saka Or Na Hi Shikayat,
Main Dukhi Nahi Tha,
Us Waqt Jab Sab Log Puchte The Mujhe
Ki Main Sab Ke Saath Hote Huye Bhi Kahan Hun,
Main Dukhi Nahi Tha,
Us Waqt Bhi Jab Aksar Main Jor Se Hansjaya Karta Tha
Apne ansuon ko chupane ke liye
Or Meri Ankhon Main Chupe Huye Ansu
Mere Rokne Par Bhi Meri Palkon Par Nahi Ruk Paate The,
Main Dukhi Nahi Tha,
Us Waqt Bhi Jab Main sona chahata Tha
Or Main So Nahi Paata Tha,
Main Us Waqt Bhi Dukhi Nahi Tha,
Jab Tumhara Ek Sapna Mujhe Raaton Ko Bechain Kar Jata Tha,
Main Dukhi Nahi Tha,
Jabki Main Janta Tha Ki Meri Har Khushi Tum Thi
Meri Har Chahat Tum Thi Or Tum Hi Meri Nahi Thi.
Main Dukhi Nahi Tha,
Us Waqt Bhi Jab Main Apne Hathon Ki Rekha Main Tumhai Pata Tha
Or Chahakar Bhi Unhai Mita Nahi Paata Tha,
Main Dukhi Kabhi Nahi Tha Kabhi Bhi Nahi.
Us waqt bhi nahi jab main hasna chahata tha ,
khush rahana chahata tha
or main aesa nahi kar paata tha.

Tu pyar ka saagar, mamta ki moorat hai
Teri aankhon mein masoomiyat bhari
Tu dharti pe khuda ki surat hai
Tujh bin duniya hai kitni adhoori

Har aansoo ko chupa ke, apne
Tune jise chalna sikhaya
Tod ke tune apne sapney
Uski aankhon ka har sapna sajaya

Yeh nasamjhi nahi hai, badtamiji hai uski
Jo usne tere pyar ko na samjha
Jahan leni thi usse izazat teri
Wahan khud ki marzi ka raub dikhaya

Phir bhi uski har bhool ko tune
Apne pyar ke aanchal me samaya
Uski badsalooki ko baccha hai, keh ke
Duniya ke saamne usse chadaya

Maa yeh teri kismat nahi teri galti hai
Jo tune uss se umeed lagayi
Zindgi ka uska har faisla galat hai
Ye janke bhi tune uski har galti chupayi

Sirf isi liye taki pitaji na mare usse
Sirf isi liye ki tu na dekh sakti thi kabhi usse rote
Par soch Maa, in sabke badle kya mila tujhe
Aaj tu ro rahi hai, kaun hai jo tujhe chup kara de

Maa, yeh kudrat bhi ajeeb cheez bana gaya
Nau maah ki pida se leke ab tak imtihan leta gaya
Har kadam pe usse milti gayi safalta
Par phir bhi woh khuda usse rulata gaya
Isse zyada kya bura hona tha uske saath
Ki jisko usne duniya ki har takleef se bachaya,
Wo nasamajh hi apni MAA ko rula gaya

Jab hum roye, tujhe pukara Maa
Dard mein bhi tera naam liya
Tere bina har kaam adhoora hai Maa
Phir bhi kyun tujhe itna apmaan kiya

Kehte hain, aap jisse sabse zyada pyar karo
Ussi ko hi aap dukh-takleef dete ho
Nahi manti main is baat ko
Kyunki jisse aap sache dil se pyar karo
Usse kya aap kabhi dukhi dekh sakte ho

If I could catch a rainbow
I would do it just for you
And share with you its beauty
On the days you're feeling blue.

If I could build a mountain
You could call your very own;
A place to find serenity,
A place to be alone.

If I could take your troubles
I would toss them in the sea,
But all these things I'm finding
Are impossible for me.

I cannot build a mountain
Or catch a rainbow fair,
But let me be what I know best,
A friend who's always there.

REALY I HAVE REMEMBERED
THAT NARROW STREETS,
THAT GHATS OF GANGA,
WHERE PAST OF MY CHILDHOO,
THAT BATHED IN GANGA,
THAT SOUND OF MAHADEV,
THAT TEMPLES THAT PRIEST,
THAT PAAN OF BANARAS
THAT PEOPLE OF BANARAS,
THAT LIFE OF BANARAS,
WHERE I WOULD LIVE FOREVER
TILL MY DEATH.
AGAIN I WOULD HEAR
THAT SOUND IN THE MORNING
FROM THE MOSQUE
"ALLAH HOO AKABER"
AND FROM TEMPLES
"HAR-HAR MAHADEV"
REALY ONCE AGAIN
I WANT TO MEET TO KASHI,
TO FOREVER
TO ROREVER.

hamesa apko chaha hai khud se jyada
apke sath hi juda hai mere dil ka rishta
sapno me bhi dekhti hun apka hi khwab
hum dono chale ja rahe hain bahut dur pakad ke hatho me hath
hasti hu khil khilake apke sath
jab chhed jate ho ap mere sath
ap mujhe baho me bharke lelete hain samandar ki leharo me
bhig jate hain dono khel khel me
suhana sham ka mausam hota he
samandar ka pani lal rang me rang jata hai
kitni tammanna hai apke sath
par sapna to sapna hota hai
hamesha toot jata hai
main soch me pad jati hu
kyn toot jata hai sapna
kyn toot jata hai rishta
jinko hum itna pyar karte hain
wohi kyn paraye ho jate hain
fir se so jati hu
fir se kho jati hu apki baho me
par dil me bharosa hai
ap bhi tarsenge mere liye apne khwabo me
kayamat aa jayegi jab mera sapna sachi me rang layega

Kabhi kabhi kuch aise rishte bante hain is jahan mein
Jo na chaho to bhi nibhane padte hain
Dard ke kaante chubhte to hain
Par phir hontho ko sike aansoo pine padte hain
Aur kuch rishte aise bhi hote hain
Jo zameen pe aake hum khud banate hain
Waqt jaise guzarte hain
Woh rishte dil ke khaas ban jate hain

Un rishton mein ek rishta pyar ka hota hai
Chaho to bhi na bhoola payo
Woh rishta hi kuch aisa hota hai
Dil ke kareeb, kuch khaas ehsaas hote hain
Honthon pe dabe hui awaaz hoti hai
Woh awaaz na nikle paye jo agar
To is dil mein halki si chubhan hoti hai

Kehne ko dard chota hota hai
Par uski chaap gehri hoti hai
Jise chaho zindgi mein sabse zyada
Kabhi na chupao dil ki baat us se
Kabhi bolke nahi balki bina bole
Hum uske khaas ko kho dete hain
Keh do to shayad woh mil jaye
Par na kahein to pnae walon ko bhi kho dete hain

Maine bhi jise chaha jab usne mujhe kaha
Dil nishabd tha, dil mein ek darr tha
Itni thokrein jo khayi thi zindgi mein
Is dil mein daba khone ka waham tha
Par na us pal sochti, na tumhe chunti
Jo kar diya hota inkaar tabhi
To kaise samajh pati yeh baat
Ki tum hi the jiska intzaar tha
Main hun khoosnasib pake tumhara saath
