Aawara Ai Mere Dil
Lata Mangeshkar · Other Songs - Lata Mangeshkar
jaane kahaan hai teri manzil
aawaara ai mere dil
veeraanon men, saharaaon mein
aati jaati in raahon mein
tere ishaaron par
naachi main jeevan bhar
aavaara ...
ab to batalaa, ai dil mere
baaki hain ab kitane phere
ab to ruke ye safar,
mera bhi ho koi ghar
aavaara ...
raat aur din ke ye do chahare
kaun hai apanaa, ye to kah de
main kaun hoon main kya hoon
sach hoon ya saaya hoon
aavaara ...
kaise kaise toofaan aaye
bijali chamkee, baadal chhaaye,
par na ruke ham tum,
par na jhuke ham tum
aawaara ...
