Majhadhaar me kashti dub gai
Kucch aisaa nasibaa phut gayaa
Jab haath badhe daaman ki taraf
Daaman bhi tumhaaraa ruth gayaa
Kaahe ab re balam
Dhire dhire teraa
Gam dhaaye dil pe sitam
Kaahe ab re balam

Tu laakh sataa, tu laakh rulaa
Ulafat ko mitaanaa mushkil hai
Qadamo pe tere jo daal diyaa
Us dil ko uthaanaa mushkil hai
Kaise baazaaen ham
Dhire dhire teraa
Gam dhaaye dil pe sitam
Kaise baa zaaen ham.
