Lyrics
(Jatee hu mai, jaldee hai kya
Dhadke jiya, woh kyun bhala) - (2)
(Khud se hee darrne lagee hu, mai pyar karne lagee hu
Khud se jo itna darogee, tum pyar kaise karogee
Jatee hu mai, jaldee hai kya
Dhadke jiya, woh kyun bhala) - (2)
(Jadu tere jism kaa teree or khinche mujhe
Kabu naa khud pe rahe jab jab mai dekhu tujhe) - (2)
Kadam behak jayenge, yeh kyun tumne socha
Kya meree chahat pe tumko nahee bharosa
Tum par mujhko yakin hai, khud par yakin nahee
Jatee hu mai, jaldee hai kya
Dhadke jiya, woh kyun bhala
Khud se hee darrne lagee hu, mai pyar karne lagee hu
Khud se jo itna darogee, tum pyar kaise karogee
Jatee hu mai, jaldee hai kya
Dhadke jiya, woh kyun bhala
(Leke tere lab kee lalee jivan ko rangin karenge
Aankho me tujhko bharenge, kal tak tabhee jee sakenge) - (2)
Khud ko sambhale rakhiye, mujhko sambhalne dijiye
Hosh mai apne kho du, itna pyar naa dijiye
Pyar hai divanapan, hosh kaa kam nahee
Jatee hu mai, jaldee hai kya
Dhadke jiya, woh kyun bhala
Khud se hee darrne lagee hu, mai pyar karne lagee hu
Khud se jo itna darogee, tum pyar kaise karogee
Jatee hu mai, jaldee hai kya
Dhadke jiya, woh kyun bhala
Jatee hu mai naa naa naa naa.......
