Maasom si bacchi thi, maa ki ladli, par baap se parayi
Par kalank najayaz ka, samaj ne hamare sar mal dia..
Hamare apne sang chod gaye, humse muh pher liya
Par kalank naata todne ka hamare upar laga dia.
Naazuk rishton ki dori toot kar bikhar gayi
Aankhon ke aason, aankhon se behte reh gaye
Koi na aaya haath pakadne vala,
Hum andhere main hi simatkar reh gaye
Tanhaai hi hain chayi,
Niraasha bhare din jo dikhlayi
Ab dil se ummeed kho gayi,
Khushi ki aasha jaise hamesha ke liye doob gayi
Honthon se hasi gayab hain,
Aankhon mein nami kayyam hain
Dard se bhari, iss kalankit jeevan mein,
Marham ki zaroorat shayad hain..

She penned down her thoughts.
She was a kalankit woman. She was illegitimate and after her mother's death, she had no one as family. Society pushed her down, every time she tried to stand up on her feet. They taunted her, humiliated her, cursed her.... But she wanted to get up and show them their true places!
So what if she was bounded by shackles of the society...so what if  the society tainted her pure character...she had decided that she will break the shackles and rise.. and she did rise..
She broke the shackles holding her but couldn't wash off the stain on her, which was a permanent mark on her...

Voh ladi apne bhagy se
Ladi un logon se
Ladi uss samaaj se
Jisne uspe kalank lagaya
Par dho na saki us kalank ko
Jo ban chuka tha uska saaya..

He came in her life, as a ray of hope...a ray of light in her dark life

Aaya voh jo man bhaya,
Ab dhul gaya us kalank ka saaya
Mere kaale, andhere jeevan mein,
Ek nayi ujala laya...
Usne mujhe hain apnaya,
Dil mein apne samaya
Meri adhoori daastan ko,
Poora hain banaya...

He held her hand and lead her away from the society's evil eyes and enclosed her in his heart forever.

Ab hum chale hain saath,
Leke haathon mein haath
Ab manzil jahan bhi ho,
Man mein dar na samaya
Peeche choota saara zamana
Choota kalank ka saaya..

Honthon pe Muskurahate,
Aankhon ki nami gayab
Khile hain prem ke phool jaise,
Dil ke baaghon mein ajayab.

He came in her life, when she had flewn her first flight, yet the 'kalank' on her hadn't left her. He held her together when she broke down. He reinstilled faith in her heart for the omnipresent Almighty and also in love.
He mended her broken heart, which had become extremely broken due to repeated heartbreaks...

Dil toota hua tha
Ummed jaise kahi dab gayi
Kalank ke boj se
Ek aatma jaise tham gayi
Ladte ladte ab himmat saath chodne lagi
Kismat jahan le gayi usi taraf vah mudne lagi
Dil ki dararein jaise pathar ki lakeerein
Mitne ka naam na le rahe
Kalank se rangi thi aatma uski,
Rang mitne ko taiyaar na they
Laga dia pyaar ka marham,
dararein jaise bharne lagi
Moti prem ka
Do dilon ko jaise
Kismat ke dhaagon mein piro rahi..
Rang kalank ka ab uspe se
Paani ki bhaanti behne lagi..
Halka hua boj kalank ka
Dil ko jaise uske, rahat mili!

She too stood by him always. They were companions for life. He was for her and she was for him.
He helped her wash off the stain on her character, while she helped him to overcome his loneliness.

Kalank dhul gaya mera,
Akelapan door hua tera,
Hum dono ke milan se,
Bola chakor, oh chanda mera!
Do pyaar ke raahi ko
Mil gaya apna basera..
