aye kaash haal-e-dil chhupa jee lete hum

aye kaash haal-e-dil chhupa jee lete hum,
aankhiyo ke saawan ko chhupa..  jee lete hum,

dard bhara taraanana phir naa dil gaata kabhi,
har pal ko ba-khubi nibha..  jee lete hum,

kar sakte kaanton se bhi pyaar hardam,
phoolon ki aash se mann hata..  jee lete hum,

agar naa dikhata khushi ka mrig-marichika,
to maut ko bhi zindagi bana jee.. lete hum,

jo jo khwaab dekhta hai mann.. yeh pagala,
unko bhula zindagi aasan bana..  jee lete hum,

pyaas paani ki to bujh jaati hi hai yaaron,
aankhon ki pyaas bhi bujha..  jee lete hum,

dard-e-dil ki sada gar chhup jaati andheron mein,
andhere ko bhi roshani bana..  jee lete hum,

chot khaaya huwa dil agar rota na kabhi,
bekhauf angaaron par kadam bardha..  jee lete hum,

dard gar naa de, dard mere kisi sapane ko,
raaj-e-dard ko aankhon mein saza..  jee lete hum.
