baithhee hoo kab ho saweraa
wahee hain gama-ye-dil wahee hain chandaa taare
wahee hum besahaare
aadhee raat wahee hain, aaur har baat wahee hain
fir bhee naa aayaa looteraa
kaisee ye jindagee, ke saanso se hum ube
ke dil doobaa, hum doobe
yek dukhiyaa beachaaree, is jeewan se haaree
us par ye gam kaa andheraa
Rula Ke Gaya, Sapana Mera
