Taqqat

Izhaar ~

Soya nahi main 3 hafton se, kaisi zindagi hai yeh?

Na ummeed bachi dil mein, bas thodi si bandagi hai yeh...

Par taqaat wahi se aayi, jahan sab ne chhod diya...

Taqaat — naam hai us dard ka jo mujhe jeene deta hai.

Melody hook

Taqaat hai aansuon mein, taqaat hai tanhaayi mein,

Jahan sab ne haara, wahan jeet hai chhupayi mein.

Jism to tuta hai, par rooh abhi zinda hai,

Taqaat woh daag hai jo kal crown banega sitam ka.

Baat palat gayi jaise kuch tha hi nahi,

Zakhm andar ke the, par dikhaye bhi to kis se sahi?

Muh khula gharwalo ka, sabne sirf suna diya,

Barwi ke baad laga, tervi ka hi bulawa diya.

Na apne bache, na yaari mein taqaat thi,

Mard banna pada, jab aankhon mein baraqat thi

Ghar se tuta toh khud ko aasra dena tha,

Dard mein bhi taqaat thi — muskara ke jeena tha

Hook

Taqaat hai aansuon mein, taqaat hai tanhaayi mein,

Jahan sab ne haara, wahan jeet hai chhupayi mein.

Jism to tuta hai, par rooh abhi zinda hai,

Taqaat woh daag hai jo kal crown banega sitam mera yeh

Raat bhar socha — kya tha kasoor mera?

Neend bhi chhod gayi, ban gaya bas andhera.

Har dua adhoori thi, har khushi mein khalipan,

Zindagi likh raha tha, taqaat thi bas kalam ban.

Jise poocha tha khuda se bhi zyada, wahi bewafa nikla,

Mitti se bana tha main, par pathar se bhi zyada sikka.

Girke uthna nahi seekha, girke uthta gaya,

Taqaat thi mujh mein, bas duniya ko dikhata gaya.

Taqaat chillaayi nahi, bas chupchap sahti gayi,

Har toote pal mein woh mujhe phir se banati gayi,

Main ro nahi saka, lekin main rukha bhi nahi,

Taqaat thi woh khamoshi, jisme har toofan dabi thi

Hook

Taqaat hai aansuon mein, taqaat hai tanhaayi mein,

Jahan sab ne haara, wahan jeet hai chhupayi mein.

Jo aag lagi thi dil mein, woh roshni ban gayi,

Taqaat hai mere naam ki, ab kahaani ban gayi..
