If I’d steal, I would steal a patch of the blue sky,

To step out of the cubicle, and make the bluebirds fly!

If I’d steal, I would steal a woman’s heart,

To kill hate, and make love never part!

If I’d steal, I would steal a night from our college days,

To see old faces and kiss the rising sun before closing our eyes!

If I’d steal, I would steal a missed chance,

 

To play the old tune in the guitar and let the world dance!

If I’d steal, I would steal the morning’s dew,

To show that happiness lies in the untold few!

 

If I’d steal, I would steal a drop of people’s tear,

To give them to the rains, let the earth hear!

If I’d steal, I would steal a life that once led,

To let him make the world a place worth living, not yet for the dead!

If I’d steal, I would steal a few hours of my pain,

To see that possible dream, and bring in the rain!

If I’d steal, I would steal a cup of my happiness,

To give it to them, who are far behind me in the pursuit of it!
