khushiyo ke khaab dekhe aur gham liye jyada
khushiyo ke khaab dekhe aur gham liye jyada
humne sharaab kam pee, aansu peeye jyada
khushiyo ke khaab dekhe aur gham liye jyada

aisa bhi waqt aaya deedar ki talab mein
aisa bhi waqt aaya deedar ki talab mein
aisa bhi waqt aaya deedar ki talab mein
apni nigaah se bhi parde kiye jyada
apni nigaah se bhi parde kiye jyada
humne sharaab kam pee, aansu peeye jyada
khushiyo ke khaab dekhe aur gham liye jyada

tera suluk shayad itna bura nahi tha
tera suluk shayad itna bura nahi tha
tera suluk shayad itna bura nahi tha
khud zindagi ne humko dhokhe diye jyada
khud zindagi ne humko dhokhe diye jyada
humne sharaab kam pee, aansu peeye jyada
khushiyo ke khaab dekhe aur gham liye jyada

logo ko dil ke badle duniya pasand aayi
logo ko dil ke badle duniya pasand aayi
logo ko dil ke badle duniya pasand aayi
andar to jee na paaye, bahar jeeye jyada
andar to jee na paaye, bahar jeeye jyada
humne sharaab kam pee, aansu peeye jyada
khushiyo ke khaab dekhe aur gham liye jyada
khushiyo ke khaab dekhe aur gham liye jyada

We dreamt of joy, yet grief's embrace held sway,
We dreamt of joy, yet grief's embrace held sway.
Less wine we drank, but tears we did convey,
We dreamt of joy, yet grief's embrace held sway.

A time arrived, when longing for your face,
A time arrived, when longing for your face,
A time arrived, when longing for your face,
Veiled even from our own regard, this space,
Veiled even from our own regard, this space.
Less wine we drank, but tears we did convey,
We dreamt of joy, yet grief's embrace held sway.

Perhaps your ways were not so harsh and cold,
Perhaps your ways were not so harsh and cold,
Perhaps your ways were not so harsh and cold,
But life itself, its deceptions did unfold,
But life itself, its deceptions did unfold.
Less wine we drank, but tears we did convey,
We dreamt of joy, yet grief's embrace held sway.

The world they chose, their hearts they cast aside,
The world they chose, their hearts they cast aside,
The world they chose, their hearts they cast aside,
Within we failed, but outwardly did ride,
Within we failed, but outwardly did ride.
Less wine we drank, but tears we did convey,
We dreamt of joy, yet grief's embrace held sway.
We dreamt of joy, yet grief's embrace held sway.
