teri khushi ke liye do tukda zindagi jee lunga

faasle itne bardha de ki mit na payein kabhi,
dewaarein aisi bana de ki hat na payein kabhi,

apne haathon ki lakeeron se faikk de mujh ko,
raaste par aise chala de ke palat na payein kabhi,

phir apne ghar mein khushiyon ki shamme jala le,
mujh se behtar ho koi aisa humsafar banaa le,

kahi door pinzade mein dafan ker de mujhe,
jeete ji na phir meri yaad kabhi aaye tujhe,

teri aawaaz bhi sunne ko taras jaaun main,
kuch bhi aisa ker ke tujh tak wapas na aaun main,

phir teri aankhein mere khawabon ki mohtaaz na rahe,
phir tere sawaal mere jawaabon ke gunehgaar na rahe,

bas teri khushi ke liye do tukda zindagi jee lunga,
magar yaad rahe ek shabnami raat ko jab ye aankhein,
band hone lagengi, zindgi ke chiraag madham  hone lagenge.
