लफ़्ज़ एहसास-से छाने लगे, ये तो हद है
लफ़्ज़ माने भी छुपाने लगे, ये तो हद है
आप दीवार गिराने के लिए आए थे
आप दीवार उठाने लगे, ये तो हद है
ख़ामुशी शोर से सुनते थे कि घबराती है
ख़ामुशी शोर मचाने लगे, ये तो हद है
आदमी होंठ चबाए तो समझ आता है
आदमी छाल चबाने लगे, ये तो हद है
जिस्म पहरावों में छुप जाते थे, पहरावों में
जिस्म नंगे नज़र आने लगे, ये तो हद है
लोग तहज़ीब-ओ-तमद्दुन के सलीक़े सीखें
लोग रोते हुए गाने लगे, ये तो हद है
lafz ehasaas-se chhaane lage, ye to had hai
lafz maane bhee chhupaane lage, ye to had hai
aap deevaar giraane ke lie aae the
aap deevaar uthaane lage, ye to had hai
khaamushee shor se sunate the ki ghabaraatee hai
khaamushee shor machaane lage, ye to had hai
aadamee honth chabae to samajh aata hai
aadamee chhaal chabaane lage, ye to had hai
jism paharaavon mein chhup jaate the, paharaavon mein
jism nange nazar aane lage, ye to had hai
log tahazeeb-o-tamaddun ke saleeqe seekhen
log rote hue gaane lage, ye to had hai
The words started filtering with realization, this is the limit.
Even the words started to hide, this is the limit
you came to demolish the wall
You started lifting the wall, this is the limit
listened to silence noises that are frightened
Silence started making noise, this is the limit
If a man chews his lips, then he understands
Man started chewing bark, this is the limit
The body used to hide in the clothes, in the clothes
The body began to appear bare, this is the limit
People should learn the way of Tehzeeb-o-Tamdun
People started crying and singing, this is the limit
