Do Hanso Kaa Jodaa
Lata Mangeshkar · Other Songs - Lata Mangeshkar
gajab bhayo raamaa, julam bhayo re
moraa sukh chain bhee, jeewan bhee moraa chhin liyaa
paapee sansaar ne saajan bhee moraa chhin liyaa
piyaa been tadape jiyaa, ratiyaa bitaaoo kaise
birahaa kee aganee ko asuan se buzaaoo kaise
jiyaa moraa mushkil mein pad gayo re
raat kee aas gayee, din kaa sahaaraa bhee gayaa
moraa sooraj bhee gayaa, moraa sitaaraa bhee gayaa
pareet kar ke kabhee pareetam se naa bichhade koee
jaisee ujadee hoo mai, ayese bhee naa ujade koee
banaa khel moraa bigad gayo re
jeete jee chhodoongee saiyyaa naa dagareeyaan toree
beet jaayegee yoo hee saaree umareeyaan moree
nainon se hotee rahegee yoo hee barasaat balam
yaad mein rotee rahoongee teree dinaraat balam
nagar more man kaa ujad gayo re
