(dheere Dheere Chori Chori Jab Bhi Andhera Chaayen
Ek Tanha Sa Chaand Nikalkar Sab Roshan Kar Jaayen
Har Taraf Yaha Madhoshiyaan

Kabhi Khushi Hain Kabhi Koi Gam
Kabhi Haseen Hain Aankhein Kabhi Num
Jiyo Hus Ke Yaaron Ke Jiyo

Jeena Padta Hain Har Mausam
Bekhudi Mastiyaan Sab Yahaan Hain

Dheere Dheere Chori Chori Jab Bhi Andhera Chaayen
Ek Tanha Sa Chaand Nikalkar Sab Roshan Kar Jaayen
Har Taraf Yaha Madhoshiyaan

Phir Bhi Dil Mein Manzar Hain Pyaas Ka
Kabhi Laga Kash Kabhi Laga Dam
Dhunda Le Apna Koi Hamdam

Kaun Kehta Hain Tanha Raho
Achha Hota Nahi Tanhapan
Pyaas Hain Jaam Hain Saakiya Hain
