Hey you, आँखें ना चुरा, ख़ुद को मुझसे ना छुपा
ज़रा मुड़ के देख
Hey you, बदन जल रहा है, पास आ
ज़रा छूके देख
Hey you, गर्दिश में जब जाम आएँगे
नज़दीक आ, आ, आ, ऐ, अजनबी
कर लें ज़रा सी, सी, सी, हम दोस्ती
Hey you, गर्दिश में जब जाम आएँगे
मुश्किल में हम काम आएँगे
नज़दीक आ, आ, आ, ऐ, अजनबी
कर लें ज़रा सी, सी, सी, हम दोस्ती
Hey you
धिनक-धिन-धा
धिनक-धिन-धा
धिनक-धिन-धा
मस्ती ने ली है अँगड़ाइयाँ
डस लेंगी हमको तनहाइयाँ
महफ़िल में होंगी रुसवाइयाँ
दोनों के सर पे इल्ज़ाम आएँगे
Hey you, गर्दिश में जब जाम आएँगे
मुश्किल में हम काम आएँगे
नज़दीक आ, आ, आ, ऐ, अजनबी
कर लें ज़रा सी, सी, सी, हम दोस्ती
Hey you
आँखों की भी एक ज़ुबान है
ये दुनिया जिससे अंजान है
क्या तुमको इसकी पहचान है?
आँखों-आँखों में पैग़ाम आएँगे
Hey you, गर्दिश में जब जाम आएँगे
मुश्किल में हम काम आएँगे
नज़दीक आ, आ, आ, ऐ, अजनबी
कर लें ज़रा सी, सी, सी, हम दोस्ती
Hey you
फिर कब जाने अपनी मुलाक़ात हो
महफ़िल की आख़िरी ये रात हो
खुलकर लेकिन कैसे बात हो?
बातों-बातों में कई नाम आएँगे
Hey you, गर्दिश में जब जाम आएँगे
मुश्किल में हम काम आएँगे
नज़दीक आ, आ, आ, ऐ, अजनबी
कर लें ज़रा सी, सी, सी, हम दोस्ती
Hey you, गर्दिश में जब जाम आएँगे
मुश्किल में हम काम आएँगे
नज़दीक आ, आ, आ, ऐ, अजनबी
कर लें ज़रा सी, सी, सी, हम दोस्ती

Is it me or the 90's actresses were naturally so exotic looking and just beautiful? I remember watching this song everyday when I was 12.
