dil mein roshani kar aankhon mein tuu muskura
(ghar-ghar saavan barase hai
pyaasi mamata tarase hai) - 2
bin tere mera aangan suunaa-suuna
duur ke o chanda
bholi-bhaali aankhon mein
in matavaali aankhon mein
dil mein hai jivan ka manahar sapana
duur ke o chanda
Duur Ke O Chanda Aa Meri Baanhon Mein Aa
