kab tere husn se inkar kiya hai maine
kab tere husn se inkar kiya hai maine
jindagi tujhse bahut pyar kiya hai maine

muskurati hai kisi aankh me kajal banke
kisi ke dhadak uthti hai aachal banke
kabhi phulo ke kataro se chalak jati hai
kabhi shole kabhi shabnam se lapak jati hai
kaise kaise tera didar kiya hai maine
kaise kaise tera didar kiya hai maine

tu har ek rang har ek saye me najar aati hai
jarre jarre se kiran bankar ubhar aati hai
tere jadu teri khusbu teri muskano ko
tere umde hue machle hue toofano ko
apni sanso me giraftar kiya hai maine
jindagi tujhse bahut pyar kiya hai maine

tujhko chaha to magar koi takaja na kiya
maine bhule se tere pyar ko ruswa na kiya
ye bata maine kabhi tujhse churai aankhe
tere chehre se kaha maine hatai aankhe
mujhko kab tera gunehgar kiya hai maine
jindagi tujhse bahut pyar kiya hai maine

maut aayegi to ek pal ki na fursat degi
saans lene ki bhi kambakht na mohlat degi
jite jee kisliye phir aapko nasad kare
jindagi ek bhi pal kyu tera barbad kare
lamha lamha ye ikrar kiya hai maine
jindagi tujhse bahut pyar kiya hai maine
jindagi tujhse bahut pyar kiya hai maine

When did I ever deny your beauty's grace?
When did I ever deny your beautiful face?
Life, I have loved you with a passionate embrace.

You smile as kohl within a loving eye,
You beat with passion as a flowing sky,
You spill from petals, in drops that lie,
Sometimes a flame, sometimes the morning sigh.
In a thousand forms, I've seen your face arise,
In a thousand forms, I have witnessed your eyes.

You dwell in every shade, a hidden art,
From every mote, a sunbeam to impart.
Your magic, fragrance, laughter's sweet delight,
Your crashing storms, your overwhelming might,
Within my breath, I've held you in my heart.
Life, I have loved you with a passionate start.

I loved you, yet no claim did I pursue,
Never, by chance, your love did I eschew.
Tell me, did I ever look away from you?
From your bright face, did I ever break through?
When did I make myself a sinner true?
Life, I have loved you with a passionate hue.

Death will arrive, and leave no time to spare,
Will steal away the breath, and show no care.
Then why, while living, should I know despair?
Why should a single moment be a snare?
Each moment, I have pledged my love so fair,
Life, I have loved you beyond compare.
Life, I have loved you beyond all care.
