jeevan bhar dhoondha jisako vo pyaar mila par nahi mila 

saath nibhaata sukh-dukh mein vo yaar mila par nahi mila 

jeevan bhar dhoondha ... 



usaki soorat aankhon mein usaka jalava dil mein hai 

mujhako aisa lagata hai jaise vo mahafil mein hai 

rang badalati duniya mein diladaar mila par nahi mila 

jeevan bhar dhoondha ... 



is duniya ki reet ki kaatir maine baat nibhaai hai 

yoon to hansata rahata hoon par chot jigar pe khaai hai 

chaahat ke doraahe par gamakvaar mila par nahi mila 

jeevan bhar dhoondha ...
