saare shehar mein kahin toh koi thikaana hoga
jahaan kisine dil ka kehana maana hoga

pattharo ke bane inn sheharo mein
jaaye shishe ke sapane kaha
jindagi ki tej inn leharon mein
khwaab theharenge apane kahaan
pehne waqt ki janjire
tamannaaye bebas hai saari
hai atal jaise takdire, jindagi inake aage haari
pattharo ke bane inn sheharo mein
jaaye shishe ke sapane kahaan
jindagi ki tej inn leharon mein
khwaab theharenge apane kahaan
pehane waqt ki janjire
tamannaaye bebas hai saari
hai atal jaise takdire, jindagi inake aage haari
pattharo ke bane in sheharo mein,
jaaye shishe ke sapane kaha

koi kise pukaare mile matlab ke log saare
khokali baate jinaki saari
apane bhi hai paraaye magar duniya ki hai ye raay
khud ko dhoke me rakhana hai samajhadaari
pattharo ke bane in sheharo mein
jaaye shishe ke sapane kaha
jindagi ki tej inn leharo mein
khwaab theharenge apane kaha

chaahe jitana ghamand andhere kare
ek kiran tod deti hai yeh guroor
dhundana hoga ghum ke rasto mein
chhup ke baithi wahi khushiya jaroor
khwaabo se khaali aankhe
jo hai har pal sawaali aankhe
jiname rehati hai khudgarji
in aankhon ke nagar mein
bata in jaalimo ke ghar mein
iss jamaane mein, chalegi kya dil ki marji
pattharo ke bane inn sheharo mein
jaaye shishe ke sapane kaha
jindagi ki tej inn leharon mein
khwaab theharenge apane kaha
pehane waqt ki janjirein
tamannaaye bebas hai saari
hai atal jaise takdire, jindagi inke aage haari
pattharo ke bane in sheharo mein
jaaye shishe ke sapane kaha
koi to samjhaaye aise logo ko
jo aksar haalaat pe apne rote hai
chaaron taraf diwaarein hain, to hone do
diwaaro mein darwaaje bhi hote hai

Somewhere in this city's sprawl, a haven must exist,
Where the heart's true voice was once allowed to persist.

In cities forged of stone, where do glass dreams reside?
On life's swift, relentless tide, where do our visions confide?
Bound by time's heavy chains, desires rendered frail,
Destinies, it seems, remain, life before them does fail.
In cities forged of stone, where do glass dreams reside?
On life's swift, relentless tide, where do our visions confide?
Bound by time's heavy chains, desires rendered frail,
Destinies, it seems, remain, life before them does fail.
In cities forged of stone, where do glass dreams reside?

Who calls out to whom, when all seek their selfish gain?
Hollow words they consume, echoing again and again.
Even kin feel estranged, yet the world judges with ease,
To deceive oneself is arranged, a supposed clever decree.
In cities forged of stone, where do glass dreams reside?
On life's swift, relentless tide, where do our visions confide?

Though darkness boasts its might, a single ray can break,
Shattering pride's cold height, for which our hearts ache.
Seek in sorrow's deep maze, where joy in hiding stays,
And whispers through all the days, it’s true embrace to take.
Eyes devoid of dreams, always asking, it seems,
Where self-interest gleams, within their cold space.
In the cruel ones' domain, in this era of pain,
Will the heart's will sustain, find a compassionate place?
In cities forged of stone, where do glass dreams reside?
On life's swift, relentless tide, where do our visions confide?
Bound by time's heavy chains, desires rendered frail,
Destinies, it seems, remain, life before them does fail.
In cities forged of stone, where do glass dreams reside?

Someone must explain to those who weep for what they face,
Walls surround, but the soul's hope will find an opening space.
