Zaroori Tha

Lafz kitne hi tere pairon se lipte honge

Tune jab aakhiri khat mera jalaaya hoga

Tune jab phool kitaabon se nikaale honge

Dene wala bhi tujhe yaad to aaya hoga

♪

Teri aankhon ke dariya ka utarna bhi zaroori tha

Mohabbat bhi zaroori thi, bichhadna bhi zaroori tha

Zaroori tha ki hum donon tavaaf-e-aarzu karte

Magar phir aarzuuon ka bikharna bhi zaroori tha

Teri aankhon ke dariya ka utarna bhi zaroori tha

♪

Bataao, yaad hai tumko? wo jab dil ko churaaya tha

Churaai cheez ko tumne Khuda ka ghar banaaya tha

Wo jab kahte the, mera naam tum tasbeeh mein padhte ho

Mohabbat ki namaazon ko qaza karne se darte ho

Magar ab yaad aata hai, wo baatein thiin, mahz baatein

Kahiin baaton hi baaton mein mukarna bhi zaroori tha

Teri aankhon ke dariya ka utarna bhi zaroori tha

♪

Wahi hain sooratein apni, wahi main hoon, wahi tum ho

Magar khoya hua hoon main, magar tum bhi kahiin gum ho

Mohabbat mein dagha ki thi, so kaafir the, so kaafir hain

Mili hain manzilein, phir bhi musaafir the, musaafir hain

Tere dil ke nikaale hum kahaan bhatkein, kahaan pahunche

Magar bhatke to yaad aaya, bhatakna bhi zaroori tha

Mohabbat bhi zaroori thi, bichhadna bhi zaroori tha

Zaroori tha ki hum donon tavaaf-e-aarzu karte

Magar phir aarzuuon ka bikharna bhi zaroori tha

Teri aankhon ke dariya ka utarna bhi zaroori tha
