Duniya Tez Hai

Mujhe is duniya mein laya, Maa tune hi toh
Mujhe bolna chalna sikhaya, Maa tune hi toh
Mujhe is duniya mein laya

Nau mahine kokh mein, dard sehla ke rakha
Khud bhooka reh kar, mujhko pehle chakha
Neend apni gawake, mujhko chain se sulaya
Raat bhar karwatein, par hothon pe gaana aaya
Janam jab lene laga, maut se lad gayi tu
Doctor ne jawab diya, par tune umeed na chhodi tu
Meri pehli saans pe, sabse zyada tadpi tu
Meri pehli rulayi pe, sabse zyada hans padi tu
Mujhe is duniya mein laya, Maa tune hi toh

Ungli pakad ke chalna, tune sikhaya
Ek do teen ginke, kadam badhaya
Girta tha main baar baar, ghutne chhil jaate the
Tu phook maar ke kehti, "Sher ke bacche rote nahi"
Dhool jhaad ke kehti, "Beta shabaash, phir se"
Mela mein bheed thi badi, par haath na chhoda tune
Kho jaata agar main, toh tu khud ko kho deti
Mujhe bolna chalna sikhaya, Maa tune hi toh

Baba bolna seekha, par pehle Maa pukara
Tera naam hi meri, zubaan ka pehla sahara
Toota phoota bolta tha, tu matlab samajh jaati
Ishara karta tha bas, zaroorat pehchaan jaati
Kavita nahi aati thi, tune lori sunaayi
"Chanda mama door ke" se, neend aayi gehri
School ki ABCD se pehle, tune duniya padhaayi
Achha bura kya hai, aankhon se samjhaayi
Mujhe bolna chalna sikhaya, Maa tune hi toh

Bhooka sula deti khud ko, mujhe doodh pilaya
Kahani suna ke raat ko, bhooka pet bahlaaya
Phate kapdon mein khud rehkar, mujhko naya dilaya
Eid Diwali aati, kehti "Beta tu pehle pehen"
Tapti dhoop mein khadi, sar pe chhaon ban gayi
Barish mein bheege dono, chhatri mere sar pe thi
Toofaan aaye zindagi mein, meri naav ban gayi
Mujhko kinaare laake, khud bhanwar mein reh gayi
Mujhe is duniya mein laya, Maa tune hi toh

School ka pehla din, tu darwaze tak chhodi
Aankh mein aansu chupake, himmat meri jodi
Tiffin mein paratha rakha, achaar saath rakh diya
Keh gayi "Sabse dosti karna, par dil na dukhana"
Ghar laut ke aata tha, daant se tu milti thi
Kaan pakad ke kehti, "Homework kiya ya nahi?"
Phir roti pe ghee lagake, saari thakaan har leti thi
Padhai mein kamzor tha, par tu teacher ban gayi
Mujhe bolna chalna sikhaya, Maa tune hi toh

Bukhar mein raat bhar, tu jaagi mere paas
Thandi patti rakh rakh, poochti "Kaise ho laal?"
Dawa se pehle teri, mamta asar kar jaati
Hakeem bhi hairan tha, ye pyaar kaam kya karta
Teri godi mein sar rakhte hi, neend aa jaati
Dard kahe chala jaaye, jab Maa paas aati
Mandir masjid sab ghoomi, mannat maangi meri
Boli "Mera beta theek karo, jaan chahiye lelo meri"
Mujhe is duniya mein laya, Maa tune hi toh

Jawaan hua main thoda, aankh dikhane laga
Tere saamne zubaan, chalane laga
Galti pe daanta tune, gussa kiya maine bhi
Raat ko khana na khaya, subah tu manane aayi
Duniya ne thokar maari, ghar se bhi nikala
Naukri nahi lagti thi, sabne bewakoof bulaaya
Par tera darwaaza, hamesha khula nikla
Boli "Aa ja beta, roti padi hai garam"
Logon ne bewafa kaha, tune beta bulaya
Haara hua tha sabse, tune gale lagaya
Mujhe is duniya mein laya, Maa tune hi toh
