mei kuch rang bhare jaaye, kuch hosh mei aaya jaye kuch , khayalo
ko saaz
kiya jaaye.....ye silsila , ye mohabbat nayi nahi hai , purana yaarana hai humara
ghumne phirne se
... Aaj sirf sundarbans,
jiska naam hi itna sundar
ho to alfaaz kaha se aayenge , kabil alfaaz
, jo uske mukabil
khade ho sake ,
koshish karke dekhte hai .....
