Pritam Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
तुझको तरसे रतियाँ मेरी
जीना मुझको रास आने लगा
जबसे चहकी बतियां तेरी
जोगन तेरा मारा रसिया
जग जीता दिल हारा रसिया
पग तेरे चौबारे ठहरे
सदके मैं बंजारा रसिया
ये तेरा हुआ तूने जिया मोह लिया
रसिया..
ने तेरा है जो वही तुझे सौंप दिया
मेरा सरमाया है तू
तेरा सरमाया हूँ मैं
आजा मुझे सींच दे
मुरझाया हूँ मैं
जैसे मेरा दामन है तू
और तेरी छाया हूँ मैं
तभी तेरा बावरा
कहलाया हूँ मैं
तेरी बाहों में हो के
लगता है के ज़मीन पे
जन्नत सच में अगर कहीं है
यहीं है
बन कर तेरा यारा रसिया
सोचे ना दोबारा रसिया
पग तेरे चौबारे ठहरे
सदक़े मैं बंजारा रसिया
रसिया
ये तेरा हुआ तूने जिया मोह लिया
रसिया
ने तेरा है जो वही तुझे सौंप दिया
