raat kitni

raat kitni daastane. keh rahi hai

ik nadi yaadon ki hai jo. beh rahi hai

raat kitni daastane. keh rahi hai

ik nadi yaadon ki hai jo. beh rahi hai

milne aaye hain hum se

beete huve lamhein kal ke

kitne pehchaane chehre

tanhaai mein hain chhalke

yun toh koi hai kahaan koi kahaan. yaadein leke aayi hai sabko yahaan

raat kitni daastane. keh rahi hai

ik nadi yaadon ki hai jo. beh rahi hai

ek maathe par damakti ek bindi

ek aanchal jaane kyun lehra raha hai

ghar ke darwaaze pe sundar si rangoli

phir koi tyohaar milne aa raha hai

nanhe paaon se chalta hai koi

ungliyon se jap raha hai koi maala

ek thaali ik kalaai ek raakhi

ek mandir ek deepak ik ujaala

raat kitni daastane. keh rahi hai

ik nadi yaadon ki hai jo. beh rahi hai

dosti ka haath hai kandhe pe rakkha

pyaar se do aankhein chhalki ja rahi hain

dhoop ki hai dhajjiyan baaghon mein bikhri

pedon mein chhupke hawayein gaa rahi hain

lambi saansein lete hain saawan ke jhoole

ghaat par paayi pyaasi gagariya hain

nadiya kinaare hai bansi ka lehra

ek pagdandi pe khanki choodiyan hain

raat kitni daastane. keh rahi hai

ik nadi yaadon ki hai jo. beh rahi hai

milne aaye hain hum se

beete huve lamhein kal ke

kitne pehchaane chehre

tanhaai mein hain chhalke

yun toh koi hai kahaan koi kahaan

yaadein leke aayi hai sabko yahaan

raat kitni daastane. keh rahi hai

ik nadi yaadon ki hai jo. beh rahi hai
