Kabhi Kabhi

Yeh teergi jo meri zeest ka muqaddar hai
le jaati hai mujhe anjaani rahguzaaron se

Muheeb saaye meri simt badhte aate hai
Hayaat-o-maut ke pur-haul khaar-zaaron se

Na koi raah na manzil na roshani ka suraag
Bhatak rahi hai khalaaon mein zindagi meri
Inheen khalaaon mein rah jaoonga kabhi khokar

Ajab na hota ke main begaana-e-alam rehta
Aur na Pukaarteen mujhe yeh talkhiyan zamane ki
yun hee kabhi kabhi mere dil mein khayal aata hai

 ---------------------------------------------------

Teergi - Darkness
Rahguzaaron - Paths

Muheeb - Dreadful
Simt - Direction
Hayaat-o-maut - Life and death
Pur-haul - Full of terror
khaar-zaaron - Small trees with many thorns

khalaon - vaccum

Begana-e-alam - Alien to sadness/grief
Talkhiyan – Bitterness’s
