Oo .. ho ho ..
Phir se ud chala
Ud ke choda hai
jahaan neech mein tumhare
ab hoon hawale
Door door log baag meelon
door yeh vaadiyan
Ghar, dhuaan dhuaan tan har
badli chali aati hai choone
Aur koi badli kabhi kahi kar de
tan geela yeh hai bina ho…
Kisi manzar par
Main ruka nahi
Kabhi khud se bhi
Mein mila nahi
Yeh gila toh hai
Mein khafa nahi
Shehar ek se
Gaau ek se
Log ek se
Naam ek oo…
Phir se ud chala main
Mitti jaise sapne yeh kitna bhi palkon se
jhaado phir aa jaate hain
Itne saare sapne kya kahoon
Kis tarah se maine tode hain chode hain,
kyun
Phir saath chale, mujhe
le ke ude yeh kyun oo ..
Kabhi daal daal,
kabhi paat paat
Mere saath saath,
phir dar dar yeh
Kabhi sehera,
kabhi saavan
Banu raavan kyun mann manke
Kabhi daal daal,
kabhi paat paat
Kabhi din hai raat,
kabhi dinmin hai
Kya sach hai, kya maya,
hai daata, hai daata
Idhar uudhar, titar bitar
Kya hai pata, hawa liye jaye teri ore
Kheenche teri yaaden teri yaaden teri ore
Rang birange vehmon mein,
main udta phirun
Rang birange vehmon mein,
main udta phirun
Oo .. ho ho ..
