[Bavari bavari main to huwi yaara
 Tere ishq mein]-- (2)

Meri jaan meri jaan ho tum... (4)
Main chaahoon tujhe kis kadar
Mere jazbon se anjaan ho tum
Meri jaan meri jaan
Meri jaan meri jaan ho tum.. (4)

Bavari bavari main to huwi yaara
Tere ishq mein

Aati jaati saanson ki tarah
Mehsoos tujhe main karti hoon
Lamha lamha bechaini mein bhi
Teri galiyon se guzarti hoon
Main maangoon tujhe har ghari
Mere honthon ki muskaan ho tum
Meri jaan meri jaan
Meri jaan meri jaan ho tum... (4)

Bavari bavari main to huwi yaara
Tere ishq mein

Meri yaadon ki jaagir ho tum
Seene mein basa ke rakh loongi
Mere khwaabon ki tasveer ho tum
Palkon mein chhupa ke rakh loongi
Main dhoondoon tujhe har jagah
Meri aakhon ka armaan ho tum
Meri jaan meri jaan
Meri jaan meri jaan ho tum... (4)

Main chaahoon tujhe kis kadar
Mere jazbon se anjaan ho tum
Meri jaan meri jaan
Meri jaan meri jaan ho tum... (4)
