baachpan mera choot gaya
jab ma papa gaye chhodkar

sapne mere toot gaye
khushiyaan meri bikhar gayi
masoom si muskurahat meri
udaasi mein ghoom ho gayi

lekin pacchar zameen par aaj
phir se khushiyaa barsi hai
koi meri jaisi baatowali
ek nanni jaan aayi hai

aakho mein uske ab kabhi
Na assu aayenge
tu kuch bhi kar le zindagi
Ab gam kabhi na aayenge
