Lagan Tose Lagi Balma
Lata Mangeshkar Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

लगन तोसे लागि बलमा
लगन तोसे लागि बलमा
धरे दिल पे हाथ
तारों के साथ
सारि रैन जागी बलमा
लगन तोसे लागि बलमा
लगन तोसे लागि बलमा
चमक चमक
कर डूबे तारे
इक इक कर के सारे
चमक चमक
कर डूबे तारे
इक इक कर के सारे
घटते घटते
घाट गई बाटी
फीके पड़े उजियारे
चलते चलते
थक गया चंदा
थके न प्यार के मारे
लगन तोसे लागि बलमा
लगन तोसे लागि बलमा

नींद की माँ थी दुनिया सारी
सपनो में थी खोइ
नींद की माँ थी दुनिया सारी
सपनो में थी खोइ
रुकी रुकी थी मस्त हवाएँ
लहर लहर थी सोइ
मई निन्दिया से दूर रही क्यूँ
ये न जाने कोई
लगन तोसे लागि बलमा
लगन तोसे लागि बलमा




चाँद ने कितना
मुझसे पूछा
बात कोई तो होगी
चाँद ने कितना
मुझसे पूछा
बात कोई तो होगी
किसके कारण जोग लिया है
कौन है तेरा जोगी
मै बस मुँह से इतना बोलि
प्रीत की हुन मे रोगी
लगन तोसे लागि बलमा
लगन तोसे लागि बलमा
लगन तोसे लागि बलमा
लगन तोसे लागि बलमा
धरे दिल पे हाथ
तारों के साथ
सारि रैन जागी बलमा
लगन तोसे लागि बलमा
लगन तोसे लागि बलमा
