agar talash karun koi mil hi jaega

agar talash karun koi mil hi jaega magar tumhari tarah kaun mujh ko chahega tumhen zarur koi chahaton se dekhega magar vo ankhen hamari kahan se laega na jaane kab tire dil par nai si dastak ho makan khali hua hai to koi aaega main apni raah men divar ban ke baitha huun agar vo aaya to kis raste se aaega tumhare saath ye mausam farishton jaisa hai tumhare baa'd ye mausam bahut sataega agar talash karun koi mil hi jaega magar tumhaari tarah kaun mujh ko chahega tumhein zarur koi chahaton se dekhega magar wo aankhen hamari kahan se laega na jaane kab tere dil par nai si dastak ho makan khali hua hai to koi aaega main apni rah mein diwar ban ke baitha hun agar wo aaya to kis raste se aaega tumhaare sath ye mausam farishton jaisa hai tumhaare ba'd ye mausam bahut sataega
