ISB Contributor:

tum to dil ke taar chhe.Dakar
ho gaye... beKabar...
chaa.Nd ke tale jale.nge ham
ai sanam... raat bhar
tum to dil ke taar chhe.Dakar...

tum ko nii.nd aaegI, tum to so hii jaaoge
kis kaa le liyaa hai dil, ye bhii bhuul jaaoge
yah to kah ek baar, Kvaab me.n to aaoge
Kvaab me.n to aaoge ...
tum to dil ke taar chhe.Dakar ...

apanii ek aur raat, ulajhano.n me.n jaayegii
shokh shokh vo adaa, ham ko yaad aaegii
mast mast har nazar, dard banake chhaayegii
dard banake chhaayegii...
tum to dil ke taar chhe.Dakar
ho gaye... bekhabar...
tum to dil ke taar chhe.Dakar...

There are two versions of this song, both are identical. The other version is sung by Lata. Actually, there is a short humming by Talat at the start of that version. The lyrics in the ISB are usually what available on the cassette releases. The third stanza, which is found on the video, is missing from ISB. The humming by Talat is at the beginning of Talat version too in the movie.

The missing stanza:

aaj sabr kaa bhii haath, hamase chuuTane lagaa
ab to baat baat par, dil bhii ruuThane lagaa
kyaa Gazab hai har ko_ii hamako luuTane lagaa
hamako luuTane lagaa
tum to dil ke taar chhe.Dakar...
