baatein

baatein choti choti..

lekin kitni moti..

kabhi hasati gudgudati..

kuch yaad ban jaati..

shaam ki chai ke waqt

dopahar ki thakaan ke samay..

subah ki bhad-daud ke waqt 

ya raat ke aaraam ke beech..

kabhi rai si choti baatein

ghanto discussion karati..

aur kabhi pahad si unchi baatein

khamoshi me hi deh jaati..

baatein kuch ankahi si

din bhar dubaye rahe..

kuch keh kar bhi

yaad hi na rahe..

baatein choti choti..

lekin kitni moti..
