Ek samay tha jab main bhi jiya karta tha
Kuch sapne aankhon mein liye rakhta tha
Par aaj yaad aata hai wo zamana
Jab main bhi insaan hua karta tha
Is seene mein ek chota sa dil tha
Jo kisi ke liye dhadka kiya karta tha
Par humen mila sirf dard-e-ishq
Wo to kisi aur se mohabbat kiya karta tha
Fir aaj us mohabbat ne yaad dilaya
Ki kabhi main bhi insaan hua karta tha
Doston ke har dard ko unse pehle
Mujhse hokar gujarna padta tha
Par wo dost bhi mujhey ye kehkar tanhan chod gaye
ki tu to hamari bas ek zarurat hua karta tha
Wo tanhan raatein aaj ehsaas karati hain
Ki ek zamane mein main bhi insaan hua karta tha
Duniya har pal mere saath hoti thi
Jab main kaamyabi ke shikhar pe hua karta tha
Par jab-jab thokar khake gira us shikhar se
Mujhe rone ke liye kandha bhi nahin milta tha
Un aansu bhari aankhon ki kasam
Tab main bhi insaan hua karta tha
Aaj ye dil pathar ho chuka hai
Fir bhi mere liye sabka dil dhadakta hai
Mere liye dosti mehez shabd se zyada kuch nahin rahi ab
Fir bhi har koi mujhse dosti ke liye tarasta hai
Ab insaniyat se koi waasta nahin raha mera
Fir bhi har koi mujhe behtar insaan samajhta hai
Is sab ko dekhkar mein hanskar khud se sawal karta hun
Kyun main kabhi ek insaan hua karta tha??
Once upon a time I too used to live
Having some dreams in my eyes
But today I remember that world
When I used to be a human
There was a small heart behind my chest
That used to beat for someone
But I got only pain of love
Coz she used to love someone else
But today that love made me remember
At that time I too used to be a human
All the pain of my friends
Have to pass through me before reaching them
Those friends too leave me alone by saying
That I used to be a mere need of them
Those lonely nights made me realize
At a time I too used to be a human
World was with me always
When I am touching the heights of success
Whenever I fell from that height
I never get a shoulder to even cry
I swear those tear-filled eyes
I used to be human at that time
Today my heart has become rock
Still people’s heart beat for me
Friendship does not remain more than a word for me now
Still everyone desire to become my friend
I don’t have any relation with humanity now
Still the whole world assumes me to be a good and better human
Seeing all this I laugh and ask one question to myself
Why I used to be a human at a time??
Why I used to be a human at a time??
