use tuute dil ka banaanaa na aayaa
banaanaa na aayaa
judaa to kiyaa usane hamako milaakar
judaa kar diyaa to milaanaa na aayaa
milaanaa na aayaa
sunaa hai ke usane sitaare banaaye
sunaa hai ke usane sitaare banaae
diye sainkadon aasmaan par jalaaye
aasmaan par jalaaye
bujhaa jo hamaaraa chiraag-e-tamannaa
use ye diyaa to jalaanaa na aayaa
jalaanaa na aayaa
ye aahon ke shole ye ashqon ki ladiyaan
ye aahon ke shole ye ashqon ki ladiyaan
ye roti si aankhon mein saavan ki jhadiyaan
saavan ki jhadiyaan
jigar mein lagaa di hai ye aag kisane
ke daaman bhi hamako bachaanaa na aayaa
bachaanaa na aayaa
banaai hai itani badi jisane duniyaa
use tuute dil ka banaanaa na aayaa
banaanaa na aayaa
Banaai Hai Itani Badi Jisane Duniyaa
