Jis Gali Mein Tera Ghar
Mukesh · Kati Patang
Lyricist: Anand Bakshi
Singers: Mukesh
Jis gali mein tera ghar na ho baalma
Us gali se humein to guzarna nahi
Jo dagar tere dwaare jaati na ho
Us dagar pe humein paav rakhna nahi
Zindagi mein kai rangraliyan sahi
Har taraf muskurati yeh kaliyan sahi
JIs chaman mein tere pagh mein kante chube
Us chaman se humein phool churana nahi
Haan yeh rasme yeh kasme sabhi todke
Tu chali aa chunari pyar ki oddh ke
Ya chala jaaonga main yeh jagh chod ke
Jis jagah yaad teri satane lagi
Us jagah ek pal bhi thaharna nahi....
