Thee raat andheree bhaaee

Thee raat andheree bhaaee
aakar aavaaz lagaa ee
Darvaazaa kholo meree maaee
vo shivji milaa nahee
Vo shivjee milaa nahee maa meree

Maine kal se bhojan tyaagaa
aur saaree raat bhar jaagaa
lk dekh nazaaraa bhaagaa
aur shankar hilaa nahee
Aur shankar hilaa nahee maa meree

lk choohaa nikal kar aayaa
jisne teraa poot jagaayaa
Mal kiyaa charhaayaa bhaagaa
aur shankar uthaa nahee
Aur shankar uthaa nahee maa meree.
