यारो जी भर के जी ले पल
लगता है आज कल दौर अपना आयेगा
यारो जो खुद पे हो यकीन

है जूनून सा जीने में
है जूनून
है जूनून सा सीने में
कहीं जैसे कोई धुन बजे
राहों में देखो है मंजिल सजे सारे
हमीं हम जहाँ में हर जगह
सपने सजाने की हमको मिली वजह
यारों अंजाम की फिकर ना करती ये उम्र
फिर भला क्यूँ डरो
है जूनून
है जूनून सा जीने में
है जूनून
है जूनून सा सीने में
है जूनून

कभी जो मिलेंगे रास्ते
पल में ही चमकेगी हसीं पुरानी
तो कहो क्या कहोगे हमें
कैसे छुपाओगे नमी ये पलकों की
ये बता है क्या हुआ
