Lata:
Itna to yaad hai mujhe -- (2)
Ke unse mulakhat hui
Baad mein jaane kya hua -- (2)
Na jaane kya baat hui
Rafi:
Itna to yaad hai mujhe -- (2)
Ke unse mulakhat hui
Baad mein jaane kya hua -- (2)
Na jaane kya baat hui.
Vaade wafa ke karke kasme utha ke
Kisi pe dil lutake chala aaya
Nazrein jhukake, neend raaton ki gawake
Kasak dil mein basake chala aaya
Din to guzar jaayega ho....
Din to guzar jaayega -- (2)
Kya hoga jab raat hui
Baad mein jaane kya hua -- (2)
Itna to yaad hai mujhe
Ke unse mulakhat hui..
Lata:
Maare haya ke main to aankhen jhuka ke
Zara daaman bachake chali aayi
Parda uthake unki baaton mein aake
Apni surat dikhake chali aayi
Kisse shikayat karu, hoo...
Kisse shikayat karu -- (2)
Shararat mere haath hui
Baad mein jaane kya hua.... -- (2)
Rafi:
Itna to yaad hai mujhe
Ke unse mulakhat hui
Thi ek kahani pehle zindagani
Unhe dekha to jeena mujhe aaya
Lata:
Dilbar oh jaani, sharm se hui main paani
Bas pasina mujhe aaya
Aise mein bheeg gayi, hoo...
Aise mein bheeg gayi -- (2)
Jaise ke barsaat hui
Baad mein jaane kya hua -- (2)
