meri beti meri jaanan
tumhein sab yaad to hoga

bahut pahle bahut pahle
jawani ka tha jab aalam

mere bazu mein taqat thi
mere sine mein himmat thi

unhen ayyam mein ek din
meri aaghosh-e-ulfat mein

kisi ne la ke rakkha tha
tumhaara phul sa chehra

badan be-intiha nazuk
mere in sakht hathon mein

ajab narmi si aai thi
meri is aankh ne bu se liye the aur roi thi

mujhe to yaad hai sab kuchh
tumhein bhi yaad to hoga

nae kapde khilaune dudh ki botal kharidi thi
bahut bechain hota tha jo tum raaton ko roti thin

chali thin apne pairon par jo tum pahle-pahal beta
mujhe aisa laga tha chal padi dil ki mere dhadkan

qadam do chaar le kar tum jo ik-dam ladkhadai thin
meri sansen mere sine ke andar thartharai thin

meri godi mein rafta rafta din guzra kiye aur tum
na jaane sote sote mere sine par jawani tak

meri jaan aaj aai ho
tumhein mujh se shikayat hai

ki main ne sakhtiyan ki hain
meri wo sakhtiyan tum ko bahut ranjur karti thin

mujhe bhi ranj hota tha
magar thi tarbiyat lazim

tumhein sanche mein dhalna tha
tabiat ko badalna tha

tumhein sab yaad to hoga
meri beti mere bazu mein wo quwwat nahin baqi

tumhaari har khushi ki hain zamanat dhadkanen meri
magar ek mashwara sun lo

ki ab sab bhul jao tum
nae rishte banao tum

hamara sath chhutega
nae rishton ke meri jaan masail kam nahin hoge

magar tab hum nahin honge
akeli jaan hogi tum

faqat wo tarbiyat hogi
jo main ne sakhtiyan kar ke

tumhaare dil mein dali hai
wo tum ko yaad to hogi

sabaq sab yaad to hoga
