Aisa Banna Sawarna, Un Ka Banna Sawarna
Un Ka Banna Sawarna Aisa Banna Sawarna
Daikhnay Walay Mar Ga'ay Hoon Gay
Un Ka Banna Sawarna Aisa Banna Sawarna
Hazaaroon Wadae Shab Us Nay Is Sorat Say Palay Hein
Un Ka Banna Sawarna Aisa Banna Sawarna
Un Ka Banna Sawarna Aisa Banna Sawarna
Un Ka Banna Sawarna Aisa Banna Sawarna
Un Ka Banna Sawarna Aisa Banna Sawarna
Aa'ina Daikha Hai Unhein Kiss Nigaah Say
Un Ka Banna Sawarna Aisa Banna Sawarna
Koi Deewana Ho Ja'ay Bala Say
Un Ka Banna Sawarna Aisa Banna Sawarna
Dil To Kia Cheez Hai Jaan Say Jain Gay, Mout Aanay Say Pehle He Mar Jain Gay
Kya Qayamat Yeh Ada Hai Yeh Ada Kya Qayamat
Her Ada Mastana Sir Say Paoon Tak Chaayi Howi
Kya Qayamat! Yeh Ada Hai Yeh Ada Kya Qayamat
Kya Qayamat! Yeh Ada Hai Yeh Ada Kya Qayamat
Kya Qayamat! Yeh Ada Hai Yeh Ada Kya Qayamat
Daikh Letay Hein Woh Guzdeeda Nazar Say
Kya Qayamat! Yeh Ada Hai Yeh Ada Kya Qayamat
Kya Qayamat! Yeh Ada Hai Yeh Ada Kya Qayamat
Dil Mera Lay Ker Yeh Zalim Ne Kaha
Kya Qayamat! Yeh Ada Hai Yeh Ada Kya Qayamat
Angari Le Ke Us Ne Mujh Per Khumaar Dala
Kya Qayamat! Yeh Ada Hai Yeh Ada Kya Qayamat
Kya Qayamat! Yeh Ada Hai Yeh Ada Kya Qayamat
Fikr-E-Uqba Ki Masti Utar Ja'ay Gi Tauba Tooti To Qismat Sanwar Ja'ay Gi
Tum Ko Dunya Mein Jannat Nazar Aa'ay Gi Shaikh Ji Mai-Kade Ka Nazara Karo
