kahii.n karatii hogii, vo meraa, intazaar
jisakii tamannaa me.n, phirataa huu.N beqaraar

duur zulfo.n ki chhaa.Nv se,
kahataa huu.N mai.n havaao.n se
usii but ki adaao.n ke, afasaane hazaar
vo jo baaho.n me.n machal jaatii,
hasarat hii nikal jaatii,
merii duniyaa badal jaatii, mil jaataa qaraar
kahii.n karatii hogii \threedots

he, aramaan hai koii paas aae,
in haatho.n me.n vo haath aae,
phir Kvaabo.n kii ghaTaa chhaaye, barasaaye Kumaar
unhii.n biitii din raato.n pe,
matavaalii mulaqaato.n pe,
ulfat bharii baato.n pe, ham hote nisaar

kahii.n karatii hogii, vo meraa, intazaar
jisakii tamannaa me.n, phirataa huu.N beqaraar

I had hitherto known this as just as a Mukesh solo. Today I discovered that there is actually another stanza in this song, and that Lata figures in it. Are there two versions to this song? When I saw the movie, and on several DD Chitahaars I recall seeing only the solo version.

The additional Mukesh stanza I recall goes:

kahii.n baiThii hogii raaho.n me.n
gum apanii hii baaho.n me.n
liye khoyii sii nigaaho.n me khoyaa\-khoyaa sa pyaar
saaya rukii hogii aa.Nchal kii
chup hogii dhun paayal kii
hogii palako.n me.n kaajal kii khoyii-khoyii bahaar
