dhuaan hai dhuaan zindagi
ik khwab jal gaya
taara jo chamka tha kal
andhero me ghul gaya
raat andheri andheri rahi
ik subah mili thi kahin kho gayi
baat adhuri adhuri rahi
main jaha se chali thi wahi hu khadi
kya gazab ka ye khel khela
waqt ye kya kar gaya
khwaab banke aaya tha tu
yaad banke reh gaya

in andheri galiyo ka ab dikhta na koi sira
toot ke tu gir gaya, ik tu sitara tha mera
roshni murjha gayi, ummide khumla gayi
raat andheri andheri rahin
ik subah mili thi kahin kho gayi
baat adhuri adhuri rahi
main jaha se chali thi wahi hu khadi
kya gazab ka ye khel khela
waqt ye kya kar gaya
khwaab banke aaya tha tu
yaad banke reh gaya

Life, a wisp of smoke, a haze,
A dream consumed by burning blaze.
The star that shone, a radiant spark,
Now lost, dissolved within the dark.

The night, a canvas, black and deep,
A dawn once found, now lost in sleep.
An unfinished tale, a whispered plea,
I stand, transfixed, where I used to be.
What cruel game is this, this twist of fate?
What has Time wrought, sealed by its weight?
You came as dream, a fleeting grace,
But memory's touch, I now embrace.

In shadowed lanes, no end I see,
You fell and shattered, once my star, to me.
The light has dimmed, hope withered low,
The night descends, and shadows grow.
The night, a canvas, black and deep,
A dawn once found, now lost in sleep.
An unfinished tale, a whispered plea,
I stand, transfixed, where I used to be.
What cruel game is this, this twist of fate?
What has Time wrought, sealed by its weight?
You came as dream, a fleeting grace,
But memory's touch, I now embrace.
