Lyrics — Chehra Hai Ya Chand Khila
Chehra hai ya chand khila hai, zulf ghaneri shaam hai kya. Saagar jaisi aankhon wali, ye to bata tera naam hai kya.
Antara 1
Tu kya jaane teri khatir kitna hai betaab ye dil. Tu kya jaane dekh raha hai kaise kaise khwab ye dil. Dil kehta hai tu hai yahan to jata lamha tham jaye. Waqt ka dariya behte behte is manzar mein jam jaye. Tune deewana dil ko banaya, is dil pe ilzam hai kya. Saagar jaisi aankhon wali, ye to bata tera naam hai kya.
Antara 2
Aaj main tujhse door sahi, aur tu mujhse anjaan sahi. Tera saath nahi paaun to khair tera armaan sahi. Ye armaan hain shor nahi ho, khamoshi ke mele ho. Is duniya mein koi na hi ho, hum dono hi akele ho. Tere sapne dekh raha hoon, aur mera ab kaam hai kya. Saagar jaisi aankhon wali, ye to bata tera naam hai kya.
