hansta chehra gulab ho jaye
hansta chehra gulab ho jaye
tu meri hi kitaab ho jaye
hansta chehra gulab ho jaye

chhu ke tere hasin hotho ko
chhu ke tere hasin hotho ko
saada pani sharaab ho jaye
saada pani sharaab ho jaye
tu meri hi kitaab ho jaye
hansta chehra gulab ho jaye

umar bhar kaa khumar mil jaye
umar bhar kaa khumar mil jaye
palko se jo adaab ho jaye
palko se jo adaab ho jaye
tu meri hi kitaab ho jaye
hansta chehra gulab ho jaye

chhod di maine soch kar duniya
chhod di maine soch kar duniya
sath teraa janab ho jaye
sath teraa janab ho jaye
tu meri hi kitaab ho jaye
hansta chehra gulab ho jaye
hansta chehra gulab ho jaye
hansta chehra gulab ho jaye

May your laughing face bloom a rose,
May your laughing face bloom a rose,
May you become the book I chose,
May your laughing face bloom a rose.

Touched by the beauty of your lips,
Touched by the beauty of your lips,
May plain water turn to sips,
May plain water turn to sips,
May you become the book I chose,
May your laughing face bloom a rose.

The intoxication of a lifetime found,
The intoxication of a lifetime found,
From lashes, a reverence profound,
From lashes, a reverence profound,
May you become the book I chose,
May your laughing face bloom a rose.

I abandoned the world's design,
I abandoned the world's design,
That your presence would be mine,
That your presence would be mine,
May you become the book I chose,
May your laughing face bloom a rose,
May your laughing face bloom a rose,
May your laughing face bloom a rose.
