The song "Ab Jo Mile Hai To" by Asha Bhosle is a beautiful expression of love and the joy of finally being able to embrace the one you love. The song begins with a catchy chorus infused with Indian percussion and a mesmerizing melody, "Ha Ha Ha Para Ra Ra Tara, Haye Re Haye Re Haye Re, Ab Jo Mile Hain To Baho Ko Baho Mein Rehne De Sajna," which translates to "Now that we have met, let me stay in your arms, my beloved." The singer then goes on to describe the feeling of their love, which is so powerful that it makes all other words meaningless, "Sache Ke Jhoothe Hain Honthon Ko Honthon Se Kahne De Sajna," meaning "Let our lips remain silent because the truth of our love cannot be fully expressed in words."

The second verse of the song is about the effect of love and being with the one you love on the body and soul. The lines "Yun Hi Nasha Chadhta Rahe, Ke Tera Pyaar Badhta Rahe, Ye Jhoomta Saya Tera Tan Pe Mere Padta Rahe" imply that the singer is intoxicated by the presence of the loved one, and their love is growing stronger with each passing moment. The song's bridge then expresses how overwhelming the love is, and the singer wonders what will happen when they come back to their senses. "Tu Aa Gaya Jo Hosh Mein, Kya Hoga Phir Ye Bhol Ja" means "Now that you're here with me, what will happen when we come back to reality, forget all these thoughts," suggesting that the singer plans to cherish the moment and forget everything else.

The final verse of the song is about the singer's desperate love for the beloved's companionship. The lines "Tu Hai Hawa Shola Hoon Main, Mil Ke Bhi Jo Mil Na Sake, Buj Na Sake Tere Bina, Tere Bina Jal Na Sake" expresses the impossibility of living without the loved one, even after being together. The singer then pleads with the beloved to let them stay in their sight, "Ab Jo Mile Hain To Mujhko Nigahon Mein Rehne De Sajna," meaning "Now that we are together, let me stay in your sight, my beloved."
