Are yak-ba-yak koee kaheen mil jaataa hai

are yak-ba-yak koī kahīṅ mil jātā hai yak-ba-yak
dil se mil-mil ke dil khil jātā hai yak-ba-yak
hamne jo sochā thā dil ne jo chāhā thā
vahī milā āj yakāyak achānak he yak-ba-yak
yak-ba-yak …

apne javāṇ dil pe hameṅ kal tak baṛā nāz thā
kal tak mere dil ke lie iśhq ek rāz thā
is iśhq meṅ dil hār ke k‌yā yārā ham fidā
dil pe nayā vār huā yār milā pyār huā
mār gaī terī ik jhalak achānak he yak-ba-yak
yak-ba-yak …

āṇkhoṅ meṅ thī khvāboṅ meṅ thī barsoṅ se sūrat terī
hamko bhī aur dil ko bhī thī kab se zarūrat terī
muddat se ham taras gae ā ab to lag jā gale
ab daur ye yūṇ hī chale ye rāt ab na ḍhale
ho jhukī-jhukī nazreṅ uṭhā
nazar uṭhī aise milī gaī koī bijlī chamak he yak-ba-yak
achānak yak-ba-yak …

madhośh tum behośh ham chhāyā ye kaisā naśhā
ye tanhāī jān-e-man āe-āe mazā
oy tum samjhe na ham samjhe kab kaise k‌yā ho gayā
ye bād meṅ jānoge tum k‌yā mil ke k‌yā ho gayā
are hār merī jīt banī
prīt banī bāt vahī āj yahāṇ tak he yak-ba-yak
achānak yak-ba-yak …
