(mai.nne chaa.Nd aur sitaaro.n kii tamannaa kii thii
mujhako raato.n kii siyaahii ke sivaa kuchh na milaa ) \- 2
mai.nne chaa.Nd aur sitaaro.n ...

mai.n vo naGamaa huu.N jise pyaar kii mahafil na milii
vo musaafir huu.N jise koii bhii manzil na milii
zakhm paae.n hai.n bahaaro.n kii tamannaa kii thii
mai.nne chaa.Nd aur sitaaro.n ...

kisii gesuu kisii aa.Nchal kaa sahaaraa bhii nahii.n
raaste me.n koii dhu.Ndhalaa saa sitaaraa bhii nahii.n
merii nazaro.n ne nazaaro.n kii tamannaa kii thii
mai.nne chaa.Nd aur sitaaro.n ...

merii raaho.n se judaa ho ga_ii raahe.n unakii
aaj badalii nazar aatii hai.n nigaahe.n unakii
jisase is dil ne sahaaro.n kii tamannaa kii thii
mai.nne chaa.Nd aur sitaaro.n ...

pyaar maa.ngaa to sisakate hue aramaan mile
chain chaahaa to uma.Date hue tuufaan mile
Duubate dil ne kinaaro.n kii tamannaa kii thii
mai.nne chaa.Nd aur sitaaro.n ...

This song is even longer; here is stanza five:

dil mein naakaam ummido.n ke basere paaye
roshanii lene ko nikalaa to a.ndhere paaye
ra.ng aur nuur ke dhaaro.n kii tamanna kii thii
mai.nne chaa.Nd aur sitaaro.n ...
