Lyrics
jaadoogar baalmaa
tore nainon mein jiyaa kho gayaa
jaa be-imaan teraa ho gyaa
jaadoogar baalmaa
tore nainon mein jiyaa kho gayaa
jaa be-imaan teraa ho gayaa
ambuwaa pe koyaliyaa bole koo koo
chup na kare
birhaa ke naal bole ghadi ghadi
dard bhare
ambuwaa pe koyaliyaa bole koo koo
chup na kare
birhaa ke naal bole ghadi ghadi
dard bhare
main ye kahoon baawri
dheere dheere bol jiyaa so gayaa
jaa be-imaan teraa ho gyaa
jaadoogar baalmaa
tore nainon mein jiyaa kho gayaa
jaa be-imaan teraa ho gayaa
nain milaa ke aa ke man mein hamaare
kahin jaanaa naa
nain milaa ke aa ke man mein hamaare
kahin jaanaa naa
gaaliyaan degaa dukhi ho ke man meraa
kalpaanaa naa
gaaliyaan degaa dukhi ho ke man meraa
kalpaanaa naa
sun sun saanwre
lakh sambhaalaa jiyaa kho gayaa
jaa be-imaan teraa ho gyaa
jaadoogar baalmaa
tore nainon mein jiyaa kho gayaa
jaa be-imaan teraa ho gayaa
