Ban Ke Suhagan

Lata Mangeshkar · Other Songs - Lata Mangeshkar

ban ke suhaagan rahi abhaagan

rooth gai taqadeer meri

apani hi taqadeer ke aage

chal na saki tadabeer meri



aane ko to aayeen bahaaren

lekin main barabaad hui

basate basate ujad gai main

ye kaisi bedaad hui

banate banate bigad gai hai

sapanon ki tasaveer meri



manzil tak pahoonchi to manzil

aur bhi mujh se door hui

hansate hansate meri qismat

rone pe majaboor hui

aaj zamaana hua begaana

koi na samajhe peer meri
