betaab dil ki tamannaa yahi hai
tumhe chaahege tumhe pujege
tumhe apanaa khudaa banaa_enge, betaab

sune sune khvaabo me jab tak tum na aaye the
khushiyaan thi sab auro ki, gam bhi saare paraaye the
apane se bhi chupaa_i thi dhadakan apane sine ki
ham ko jinaa padataa thaa, khwaahish kab thi jine ki
ab jo aake tum ne hame jinaa sikhaa liyaa hai
chalo duniyaa na_i basaa_enge, betaab

bhigi bhigi palako par sapane itane sajaae hai
dil me jitanaa andheraa thaa, utane ujaale aae hai
tum bhi ham ko jagaanaa naa, baaho me jo so jaaen
jaise khushbu phulo me tum me yun hi kho jaaen
pal bhar kisi janam me kabhi chhute naa saath apanaa
tumhe aise gale lagaa_enge, betaab

vaade bhi hai, qasame bhi, bitaa vaqt ishaaro kaa
kaise kaise aramaan hai, melaa jaise bahaaro kaa
saaraa gulashan de daalaa, kaliyaan aur khilaao naa
hansate hansate ro de ham, itanaa bhi to hansaao naa
dil me tumhi base ho, rahaa aanchal vo bhar chukaa hai
kahaan itani khushi chhupaa_enge, betaab
