tere hotho ki hansi, hain sanam meri zindagi
tu maane ya na maane magar, baat sach yahi
ek pal tere bin jina hain gunaah
chand aur sitare sare hain gavaah
dil ki dua ye kahne pe teri, dhalti nahi chandani
tere hotho ki hansi, hain sanam meri zindagi
tu maane ya na maane magar, baat sach yahi

tu muskara de jo ek baar, patajhad me bhi aa jaye bahar
bechainiyo ko kyu mere yaar, aa jaye thoda thoda karaar
jhumti hawao ki ghatao ki kasam, ye pyar ab na hoga na kam
tere liye mera har janam, tere liye har khushi
tere hotho ki hansi, hain sanam meri zindagi
tu maane ya na maane magar, baat sach yahi

mujhse mahabbat hain jo tujhe, apni udasi de do mujhe
ab to yahi hain chahat meri, kar du main roshan duniya teri
aaja tujhe sine se laga ke rakh lu
khvaabo me khyalo me basa ke rakh lu
sach kah rahi hu dekhi na jaaye, aankho me teri nami
tere hotho ki hansi, hain sanam meri zindagi
tu maane ya na maane magar, baat sach yahi

Your laughter, love, is the breath of my days,
Whether you believe or not, this truth always stays.
To live a moment without you, a sin so deep,
The moon and the stars, their vigil they keep.
My heart's prayer, at your word, the moon won't descend,
Your laughter, love, is the breath that will never end.
Whether you believe or not, this truth always stays.

If you smile once, my dear, in autumn's cold embrace,
Spring itself shall awaken, in this desolate place.
Why the unrest, my friend, why the longing so stark?
Let there be solace, a flicker in the dark.
By the swaying winds and the gathering clouds I swear,
This love will not lessen, this love will not wear.
For you, my every birth, for you, every glee,
Your laughter, love, is all my destiny.
Whether you believe or not, this truth always stays.

If you love me, as you say, give your sorrow to me,
This is now my only desire, eternally.
To brighten your world, let me be your light,
Come, let me hold you, with all of my might.
To enfold you, within my heart, where you belong,
In dreams and in thoughts, where you are always strong.
I swear, I can't bear it, this tear in your eye,
Your laughter, love, is the reason I try.
Whether you believe or not, this truth will not die.
