Paragraph 2:

main ik jawan ladka
tu ik haseen ladki
yeh dil machal gaya to, mera kasoor kya hai
rakhna tha dil pe qabu
yeh husn to hai jaadu
jaadu hi chal gaya to, mera kasoor kya hai
rasta hamara takna, darwaza khula rakhna
lene tujhe o gori, aayenge tere sajna

Play the following lines to the tune of lines 2 and 3:

kuch aur ab na kehna, kuch aur abna karna
yeh dil ki baat apne, dil men dabaake rakhna
