Yaad hai mujhe who beetein din
Gujaare humne jo, dhoop aur baarish mein.
Yaad hai mujhe khoye dosti
Gehri thi har pal, unke jaane se.

Baar baar kyun, laute hum yahaan?
Koshish thi magar, kar na paaye judaa.

Duniya ghume har toofaan se hum ladhe
Kuch na tha bas khwaab hi saathi anjaan raahon mein.
Gunje apni aawaaz uss parbat pe,
Khoobsurat yaadein phir bhi hum shaq mein doobey.

Baar baar kyun, laute hum yahan?
Koshish thi magar, kar na paye juda.

Dekho palkon mein jo hai
Wahi khilta ek jawaab hai.
Hai yeh khoj apni pyaari
Chal likkhe aage kahaani.

Baar baar hum, lautenge yahaan
Koshish yeh rahe, ho na hum judaa.
