tu khaab saja, tu ji le jara
hai tujhe bhi izaazat, karle tu bhi muhabbat
hai tujhe bhi izaazat, karle tu bhi muhabbat
Berang si hai badi zindagi kuchh rang to bharoon
main apani tanahaayi ke waaste abbb kuchh toh karoon
Berang si hai badi zindagi kuchh rang to bharoon
Jab mile thodi fursat
Jab mile thodi fursat
mujhse karle muhabbat
hai tujhe bhi izaazat, karle tu bhi muhabbat
Usako chhupaakar main sabse kabhi le chaloon kahin door...
aankhon ke pyaalon kse pita rahoon usake chehre ka noor
Usako chhupaakar main sabse kabhi le chaloon kahin door...
aankhon ke pyaalon kse pita rahoon usake chehre ka noor
Iss jamaane se chhupakar
Iss jamaane se chhupakar
puri karloon main hasrat
hai tujhe bhi izaazat, karle tu bhi muhabbat
hai tujhe bhi izaazat, karle tu bhi muhabbat
in dino, dil mera, mujhse hai keh raha
tu khaab saja, tu ji le jara
hai tujhe bhi izaazat, karle tu bhi muhabbat
hai tujhe bhi izaazat, karle tu bhi muhabbat
