Verse 1

Ek nazara hai jo rooh ko chhedta rehta hai,

Tere baad ka shahar sirf khaali panah deta hai.

Zakhmon ki ginti karta hoon, raaton ko gin gin kar,

Khud se haar gaya hoon, tujh se jeet kar.

Verse 2

Iss deewangee ke boojh tale, saansein bhi ruk gayi,

Dil ke sehra mein ek aansoon ki aawaz reh gayi.

Kya thi woh raatein jo ab bas zehar ban gayi,

Teri muskaan bhi jaise talvaar ban gayi.

Pre-Chorus

Main banjaara hoon—par raaston pe raaste hi khatm ho gaye,

Awarapan likh gaya—aur sab lamhe sitam ho gaye.

Chorus

Har manzar ab syaahi mein dooba hua sa lagta hai,

Saahil pe khada hoon, magar darya bhi rootha hua sa lagta hai.

Tere deewaniyaat ke khwab—ab bikhri hui khaak hai,

Dil ki baazi jo haar gaya—woh meri ek aakhri raakh hai.

Verse 3

Aks tera abhi bhi khidkiyon pe dhundh ban ke jamta hai,

Aur waqt, mere seene ke andar barf ban ke thamta hai.

Khud se baatein karta hoon, par koi jawab nahi aata,

Teri yaadon ka qafila—raat bhar mera khoon peeta jaata.

Bridge

Ek awaaz ke peechhe bhatakta hoon andheron mein,

Jaise bikhre qadam doob gaye ho gheron mein.

Iss khamoshi ke dariya mein dooba hoon sir se,

Aur bas ek sawal bacha hai—kya main zinda hoon iss jism se?

Final Chorus (elongated)

Har manzar ab syaahi mein dooba hua sa lagta hai,

Saahil pe khada hoon, magar darya bhi rootha hua sa lagta hai.

Tere deewaniyaat ke khwab—ab bikhri hui khaak hai,

Dil ki baazi jo haar gaya—woh meri ek aakhri raakh hai.

Aur iss aakhri raakh mein sirf tera naam jalta hai,

Har saans abhi bhi tujh se hi talqeen karta hai.
