aaj jaane kis kaaran haule-haule dole man
a gaya toofaan, haan, a gaya toofaan -2
o tushima ri tushima -2
chhaai masti bastee-basti parvat-parvat jhoomen-2
yoon chali puravaayee, ang-ang leve angadaai
dharati chhoove aasamaan, a gaya toofaan
a gaya toofaan, haan, a gaya toofaan
o tushima ri tushima ...
thanda paani chhoone se bhi aag badan mein laage-2
neend se joban jaagaa, chupake se dhadakan laaga
mera manava beeemaan, a gaya toofaan
a gaya toofaan, haan, a gaya toofaan
o tushima ri tushima ...
mainne dekha apana mukhada maujon ke darpan mein -2
man se mainne poochhaa, yah hoon main ya koi dooja ?
itani sundar main kahaan, a gaya toofaan
a gaya toofaan, haan, a gaya toofaan
o tushima ri tushima ...
