Too pyaar kaa saagar hai
Teree ik boond ke pyaase ham
louṭaa jo diyaa toone, chale jaayenge jahaa se ham
Ghaayal man kaa paagal panchee uṛne ko bekraar
Pankh hai komal, aakh hai dhundlee, jaanaa hai saagar paar
Ab too hee isse samjhaa, raah bhoole the kahaa se ham
Idhar jhoom ke gaaye zindagee udhar hai mout khaṛee
Koi kyaa jaane kahaa hai seemaa, uljhan aan paṛee
Kaano me zaraa kah de ke aaye koun dishaa se ham
