dekhake jinako nind ud jaaye vo matavaali aankhein hain
usha ! axamya !!
matavaale nainon vaale ke main vaari vaari jaauun
matavaale nainon vaale, matavaale nainon vaale ke main
vaari vaari jaauun, ho main vaari vaari jaauun
ho main vaari vaari jaauun
matavaale nainon vaale
(is darja naaz uthaaye ke dilabar bana diya
tevar ko tir naaz ko nashtar bana diya) - 2
sah-sahake chotein mom ko patthar bana diya - 2
sach hai tumhein main hi ne sitamagar bana diya
matavaale nainon vaale
(jaadu bhara vo mithi nigaahon ka pyaar hai
jo tir hai tabar hai chhuri hai kataar hai) - 2
charakon pe charake khaauun yahi dil ki hai kushi - 2
marane mein zindagi hai kizaan mein bahaar hai
matavaale nainon vaale
