Lyrics(Provided by Nitin Shah)
aa ja hai tera intezaar
toot na jaaye wo haar
shama jali ek baar
ishq jaley baar baar
ek jaan meri aur laakh sitam
haaye lakh sitam
haaye aa ja sanam
ik jaan meri aur laakh sitam
haaye
laakh sitam haaye
aa ja sanam
ik jaan meri
toota sitaara dekho
wohi anjaam mera
wohi anjaam hai mera
nazron se door musaafir
le le salaam mera
le le salaam tu mera
o o o o
le le salaam tu mera
dil se bhula na mujhe
meri qasam tujhe
karna na gham
ik jaan meri aur laakh sitam haaye
laakh sitam
haaye
aa ja sanam
ik jaan meri
dekho taqdeer meri
khoya sanam tumhe paa ke
dekho taqdeer meri
khoya sanam tumhe paa ke
kashti hamaari doobi
saahil se takra ke
ho o
saahil se takra ke
kaisi thhi zalim ghadi
manzil thhi paas khadi
lut gaye ham
ik jaan meri aur laakh sitam haaye
laakh sitam haaye
aa ja sanam
ik jaan meri
chhodegi jaan leke
teri judaai haaye
teri judaai haaye
udke jab khaakh meri
kooche mein tere aaye
kooche mein tere aaye
o o o o
kooche mein tere aaye
aankhon se lagaa lena
damaan mein chhupa lena
tujhko qasam
ek jaan meri aur laakh sitam haaye
laakh sitam haaye
aa ja sanam
ik jaan meri

A fun film with Premnath & Shashikala – an unlikely couple. Funnily enough, Shashikala will turn 80 on Saturday..
