Mere Dost

Mile jo mujhko dost main hu khushnaseeb
Afsos khoya kuch ko, hai kuch kareeb
Nahi pata hai kayde kanoon ka
Agar yeh saath mere apne aap lage dukh haseen

Tha main chota, ho jaati thi ladai jab
Ghar pe aate hi maa ko sunata chaar gile
Mehsoos hota jab akele apne studio mein
Mic ko hi kehta, I was blessed mujhe yaar mile

Samjhata khudko main akela hi sahi
Sach toh main bhi jaanta hu thoda ziddi main
Yeh zidd hai apni
Ya shayad main satark isi baat se
Ki vishwaas koi tode na
Nahi hona chahta fir main zakhmi

Kya kismat abbhi saath?
Hu main jis marham ke khoj mein woh mil sakegi aaj?
Zindagi ek symphony main likhta behisaab
Faade panne isse itne usse bunn saku kitaab

Mere dost mere saath mera bhaar sehte
Mere dost mere saath pariwaar jaise
Kuch hai dost jo hai saath bas is shaam ke liye
Kuch hai dost jo nahi saath par woh yaad kaise?

Yaad kaise reh gaye kuch dost jo nahi paas
Jab kareebi rishte yaad nahi?
Khayalo ko hu rakhta main mehfooz apne andar
Kyuki baantne ko bacha koi khaas nahi

Pichle raat apne aap ko samjhaya
Ki har Dard ke peeche hoti koi wajah
Shayad yeh hai seekh zindagi ki par ab seekh itne mile
Istemaal ke liye bachi nahi jagah

Please try to understand yeh hai meri dil ki zubaani
Mere baaton mein koi riddle khaas nahi
Par is sheher mein jhaanka toh pata laga
Yeh hai sabki kahani
This is just another middle class life

Yeh meri middle class story, irt girt kaafi dost they mandraate jo chid jaate they mere is junoon se
I met them just a couple weeks back, they told me that they were fans
Wishwaas tha unko mere junoon pe?

Huh! That shit is cap
But I just played along and I smiled
Maine kiya unka bohot shukriyada
Aur waapsi ke train pe main hass pada khud hi pe yahi sochkar
Ki kaiso ko tha apna dost maana

Mere dost mere saath mera bhaar sehte
Mere dost mere saath pariwaar jaise
Kuch hai dost jo hai saath bas is shaam ke liye
Kuch hai dost jo nahi saath par woh yaad kaise?
