Lata:
Rang rang kr phool khile, mujhe bhaaye koi rang na
Oh... Ab aan milo sajna, aan milo sajna
Rafi:
Deepak sang patanga naache - (2) koi mere sang na
Ab aan milo sajna...
Lata:
Dhoondte tujhe taron ki chaav mein,
Kitne kaante chube mere paav mein
Tune surat dikhai nahin baalma
Pardesi hua rahke gaaon mein
Chorus:
Oye shaba shaba..
Lata:
Preet bina suna suna laage mera aangna
Ab aan milo sajna..
Rafi:
Aayi baaghon mein phoolon ki sawariyan
Mele ki hogai tayyariyan
Tera mera milan kab hoga
Mili preetam se sab panihaariyan
Chorus:
Oye shaba shaba....
Lata:
Door door rehke jeene se main aajaun tang na
Ab aan milo...
Rafi:
Kaise poochu main prem ki peheliyan
Sang hoti hai teri saheliyan
Lata:
Ve channa kis kam diya aye saheliyon
Meriyan raataan ne kinniyan akeliyan
Raat raat bhar neend na aaye
Khan khan khanke kangna
Aab aan milo sajna......
