Mohe aayee na jag se laaj
Mai itnaa zor se nachee aaj
Kee ghunghroo ṭuṭ gaye
Kuch mujhpe nayaa joban bhee thaa
Kuch pyaar kaa paagal pan bhee thaa
Ek palak meree teer banee
Ek zulf meree zanjeer banee
Liyaa dil saajan ka jeet
Vo chheṛe paayaliyaa ke geet
Kee ghunghroo ṭuṭ gaye
Mai baasi thee jiske sapno me
Vo milegaa ab mujhe apno me
Kehtee hai meree har angaṛaayee
Mai piyaa kee neend churaa laayee
Mai ban ke gayi thi chor
Main ban ke gayee thee chor
Ke meree paayal thee kamzor
Kee ghunghroo ṭuṭ gaye
