dilkasho dilnashin main hoon ek kali
khushbuyon rangon ki baahon mein padeh
mehaka sa ang hai behka sa rang hai
kyun main huin manchali kisko yahan hai pata
yeh kaisa rup hai ho chaaon ya dhup hai
hai nazuk si kali tu kaun hai yeh bataa
tu mehaki mehaki tu jawan jawan rango bari hogi daastan
yunhi khili tu jinse mili tu
kaise kaise bawre the hume bata de
kaise sunaun main yeh dastaan koi jaise yeh kehta hai yahaan
bita hua kal bitay hue pal dhire dhire dil se tu unhe bhula de
kal yeh kali na rahe bhi toh gum kya
raah mein phool aur kaliyan hain kum kya
jaaon jahan dekho jahan
chehron ki kaliyan hi kaliyan hai khilti wahan dekhna
ho mehaka sa ang hai behka sa rang hai
kyun ri aye manchali tu kaun hai yeh bata
yeh kaisa rup hai ho chaaon ya dhup hai
hai nazuk si kali tu kaun hai yeh bataa
tu mehaki mehaki tu jawan jawan rango bari hogi daastan
yunhi khili tu jinse mili tu kaise kaise bawre the hume bataa de
kaise sunaun main yeh dastaan koi jaise yeh kehta hai yahaan
bita hua kal bitay hue pal dhire dhire dil se tu unhe bhula de
