Jameen se

(Savita asked me to give the original as well. I obey.)
Rajendra Krishna Asha Bhosle - Mohhamad Rafi Madan mohan Adalat (1958)

jameen se humei aasamaanpar, bithhaa ke giraa to naa doge
agar hum ye poochhe ke dil mein, basaa ke bhoolaa to naa doge
aye raat is wakt aanchal mein tere jitanea bhee hain ye sitaaren
jo de de too muz ko to fir main lootaa doo kisee kee najar pe ye saare
kaho ke ye rangeen sapanen sajaa ke mitaa to naa doge
agar hum ye poochhe ke dil mein, basaa ke bhoolaa to naa doge
tumhaare sahaare nikal to pade hain, hain manjil kahaa dil naa jaane
jo tum saath dogen, to aayegee ik din manjil gale se lagaane
itanaa to dil ko yakeen hai, humei tum dagaa to naa doge
agar hum ye poochhe ke dil mein, basaa ke bhoolaa to naa doge

Will you lift my spirits only to let them fall with a thud?
And if I ask, will you take me to your heart, only to leave in the lurch?

O night! If you give me all the stars you have in your lap now
I would like to fling them all at my beloved;
Promise me, you won't shatter these colourful dreams you are spinning now.
And if I ask,....

I have ventured out banking on your support not knowing the destination
If you keep in step, the goal would march to embrace us
This much the heart knows that you will not betray
And if I ask.....
