Teri neend ude te ud jaaye
Kajra behkega, gajra mehkega -2
Maahi rus daaye te rus jaaye
Bindiya chamkegi..
Maine maana hua tu diwaana, zulaam tere saath hua -2
Main kahan le jaaoo apne laung ka lashkaara
Is lashkaare se, aake dwaare se -2
Chal mud daaye te mud jaaye
Bindiya chamkegi..
Bole kangna kiseeka oh sajnaa, jawaani pe. zor nahin -2
Laakh manaa karle duniya kehte hain mere ghungroo
Paayal baajegi, gori naachegi -2
Chhat tut deeye te tut jaaye
Bindiya chamkegi..
Maine tujhse mohabbat ki hain, ghulaami nahin ki balmaa -2
Dil kisi ka toote chaahe koi mujhse roothhe
Main to kheloongi, main to chhedoongi -2
Yaari tut deeye te tut jaaye
Bindiya chamkegi..
Mere aangan baraat leke saajan, tu jis raat aayega -2
Main na baithhoongi doli mein keh doongi baabul se
Main na jaaoongi, main na jaaoongi -2
Gaddi tur deeye te tur jaaye
Bindiya chamkegi..
