Rahega Ishq Tera Khaak Mein Milake Mujhe
Hue Hain Ibteda Mein Ranj Inteha Ke Mujhe

Aa, Aa Bhi Ja
Raat Dhalne Lagi, Ho, Chaand Chhupane Chala
Ho Aa, Aa Bhi Ja

Teri Yaad Mein Bekhabar, Shama Ki Tarah Raat Bhar - (2)
Jali Aarzu Dil Jalaa, Aa, Aa Bhi Ja

Sitaaron Ne Munh Pherkar Kaha Alvida Hamsafar - (2)
Chala Kaarvaan Ab Chalaa, Aa, Aa Bhi Ja

Ufak Par Khadi Hai Sahar, Andhera Hai Dil Mein Idhar - (2)
Wahi Roz Ka Silsilaa, Aa, Aa Bhi Ja

Raat Dhalne Lagi, Chaand Chhupane Chala
Ho Aa, Aa Bhi Ja....
