Ab Ke Sajan Saawan Me
Lata Mangeshkar · Other Songs - Lata Mangeshkar
aag lagegee badan me
ghataa barasegee, magar tarasegee najar
mil naa sakenge, do man yek hee aangan me
do dilon kee beech khadee, kitanee diwaare
kaise sunoongee main piyaa, parem kee pukaare
choree chupake se tum laakh karo jatan
sajan mil naa sakenge, do man yek hee aangan me
itane bade ghar mein nahee, yek bhee zarokhaa
kis tarah hum denge bhalaa, duniyaan ko dhokhaa
raat bhar jagaayegee ye mast mast pawan
sajan mil naa sakenge, do man yek hee aangan me
tere mere pyaar kaa ye saal buraa hogaa
jab bahaar aayegee to haal buraa hogaa
kaante lagaayegaa ye foolon bharaa chaman
sajan mil naa sakenge, do man yek hee aangan me
