Lyrics
O re piya haye
O re piya haye
O re piya haye
Udne laga kyon man baawla re
Aaya kahan se yeh hosla re
O re piya haye
O re piya haye
Tanabana tanabana
Bunti hawaa haaye bunti hawa
Boondein bhi to aaye nahi baaz yahan
Sagish mein shaamil sara jahan hai
Har zare zare ki yeh iltiza hai
O re piya
O re piya haye
O re piya
O re piya haye
O re piya
Ni re ,re re ga
Ga ga ma
Ma ma pa
Pa ma ga re sa
Sa re re sa
Ga ga re
Ma ma ga
Pa pa ma
Dha dha pa
Ni ni sa sa pa
Pa sa ma pa dha ni sa ni
Re ni sa sa sa
Nazrein bolen duniya bole
Dil ki zaban haaye dil ki zubaan
Ishq maange ishq chahe koi toofan
Chalna aahiste ishq naya hai
Pehla yeh vada humne kiya hai
O re piya haaye
O re piya haaye
O re piya
Piyaaaaa….
Yehhh piya
Nange pairo pe angaro
Chalti rahi haaye chalti rahi
Lagta hai ke gairo mein
Palti rahi haaye
Le chal wahan jo
Mulk tera hai
Jahil zamana
Dushman mera hai
Haaye
O re piya haye
O re piya haye
O re piya haye
O re piya haye
O re piya haye
