Abbtalak Quaatil ka sajdaa
kartey aaye hai…
Aur waqt-e-qatl pe bhi
hum muskuraaye hai;
Magar ye jaankar ki usney
sazaa-e-zindagi de di…
Bahot tootey, Bahot tootey !!!
Mohabbat thi, Mohabbat ki –
tumhi ne di ijaazat thi;
Uss mohabbat ke dhalne par...
Bahot tootey, Bahot tootey !!!
Shab-e-Sohbat ki thi barkat,
tumhe bhi thi meri chaahat;
Wo sohbat bann gayi jo rukhsat,
Bahot tootey, Bahot tootey !!!
Tere darwaaze pe aakar bhi
De na paaye they dastakk;
Teri thokar ko karkey yaad
Bahot tootey, bahot tootey !!!

"Zindagi tab bhi thi qaayam,
Zindagi abb bhi hai qaayam,
Jaankar isee haqeeqat ko –
Bahot tootey, bahot tootey!!!"
