where was the need

tera haath haath mein aa gaya ke
charaagh raah mein jal gaye
achieving my goals has become easier
winds have changed direction in my favor
when your hand did join my hand
bright lamps lit up my entire path

hazaaron lagzisheen hayal hain
lab tak jaam aane mein
yes, there is an ocean in my hand
but there is no assurance
so many wounds in my thoughts
before the cup reaches the lip

mohabbat kya karenge
dost dushman dekhne waale
in the eyes of nature
flowers and thorns are the same
how can one ever love, thinking
in terms of friends and foes
