यहाँ वहाँ सारा जहां देख लिया है
कहीं भी तेरे जैसा कोई नहीं है
८० नहीं १०० दिन दुनिया घूमा है
नहीं कहीं तेरे जैसा कोई नहीं

मैं गया जहाँ भी
बस तेरी याद थी
जो मेरे साथ थी
मुझको तड़पाती रुलाती
सबसे प्यारी तेरी सूरत
प्यार है, बस तेरा प्यार ही
माँ तुझे सलाम
माँ तुझे सलाम
अम्मा तुझे सलाम

चाँद सी ठंड है प्यार में
