aao tumhe chand pe le jaaye

pyaar bhare sapne sajaaye

chota sa bangla banaaye

ek nayi duniya basaaye

aao tumhe chand pe le jaaye

pyaar bhare sapne sajaaye

chota sa bangla banaaye

ek nayi duniya basaaye

aao tumhe chand pe le jaaye

pyaar ki hai duniya

door aasmaan pe

milke na bichdde

koi waha pe

aisi bhi ek dagar hai

aisa bhi ek nagar

aao tumhe chand pe le jaaye

pyaar bhare sapne sajaaye

chota sa bangla banaaye

ek nayi duniya basaaye

gham jahan soye

aur khushi jage

aaj ki hai manzil

taaro se aaghe

dil waha rote nahi hai 

aasu to hote nahi hai

aao tumhe chand pe je laye

pyaar bhare sapne sajaaye

chota sa bangla banaaye

ek nayi duniya basaaye

Aaj kyun humse parda hai

aaj kyun humse parda hai, parda hai ji

aaj kyun humse parda hai

aaj kyun humse parda hai

aaj kyun humse parda hai

aaj kyun humse parda hai, parda hai ji

aaj kyun humse parda hai

tera har rang humne dekha hai

ter har dhang humne dekha hai

paas aakar bhi tujhko dekha hai

door jaakar bhi tujhko dekha hai

tujhko har tarah aajmaaya hai

paake khoya hai khoke paaya hai

ankhdiyon ka bayaan samajhte hai

dhadkanon ki jabaan samajhte hain

choodiyon ki khanak se waakif hain

jhaanjhro ki jahanak se wakif hain

naazon andaaz jaante hain hum

naazon andaaz jaante hain hain

tera har raaz jaante hain

phir aaj kyun humse parda hai, parda hai ji

aaj kyun humse parda hai

aaj kyun humse parda hai

aaj kyun humse parda hai

aaj kyun humse parda hai ,parda hai ji

aaj kyun humse parda hai

dil lubhaane se faayda kya hai

munh chupaane se faayda kya hai

ulajhti ulajhti latein sanwaar ke aa

husn ko aur bhi nikhaar ke aa

narm gaalon me bijliyaan lekar

shokh aankhon me titliyaan lekar

aa bhi jaa ab ada se lehraake

ek dulhan ki tarah sharmaake

tu nahin hai to raat sooni hai

ishq ki kaynaat sooni hai

oye marne waalon ki zindagi tu hai

marne waalon ki zindagi tu hai

is andhere ki roshni tu hai

phir aaj kyun humse parda hai, parda hai ji

aaj kyun humse parda hai

aaj kyun humse parda hai

aaj kyun humse parda hai

aaj kyun humse parda hai, parda hai ji

aaj kyun humse parda hai

aa tera intezaar kab se hai

har nazar bekaraar kab se hai

shama rah rah ke jhilmilaati hai

saans taaron ki doobi jaati hai

tu agar meharbaan ho jaaye

ye zameen aasmaan ho jaaye

ab to aaja ki raat jaati hai

ek aashiq ki baat jaati hai

khair ho poori zindagani ki

dil bhi den to meharbaani ki

tujh pe sau jaan se fida hain hum

tujh pe sau jaan se fida hain hum

ek mudaat ke aashna hain hum

phir aaj kyun humse parda hai, parda hai ji

aaj kyun humse parda hai

aaj kyun humse parda hai

aaj kyun humse parda hai

aaj kyun humse parda hai, parda hai ji

aaj kyun humse parda hai

aye mere watan ke logo

 "Shaheedon ke chitaon par lagenge har baras mele.

watan pe marne walon ka yehi baqi nishan hoga "

A song written to commemorate the Indian martyrs of the Sino-Indian war.

Each word drenched in patriotism,pathos and a salute to the souls of the nation and each equally powerful to elicit tears of patriotism.

Happy Independence day :)

Song: Aye mere watan ke logo

Lyricist: Kavi Pradeep

Singer: Lata Mangeshkar

Music Director: C. Ramchandra

aye mere watan ke logon

tum khub lagaa lo naara

ye shubh din hai hum sab kaa

lehraa lo tirangaa pyaara

par mat bhulo seemaa par

veeron ne hai praan ganwaaye

kuchh yaad unhein bhi kar lo

kuchh yaad unhein bhi kar lo

jo laut ke ghar na aaye

jo laut ke ghar na aaye

aye mere watan ke logon

zaraa aankh mein bhar lo paani

jo shaheed hue hain unki

zaraa yaad karo qurbaani

jab ghaayal hua himaalay

khatre mein padi aazaadi

jab tak thi saans ladhe wo

phir apni laash bichhaa di

sangeen pe dhar kar maathaa

so gaye amar balidaani

jo shaheed hue hain unki

zaraa yaad karo qurbaani

jab desh mein thi diwaali

wo khel rahe the holi

jab hum baithe the gharon mein

wo jhel rahe the goli

the dhanya jawaan wo apne

thi dhanya woh unki jawaani

jo shaheed hue hain unki

zaraa yaad karo qurbaani

koi sikh koi jaat maraatha

koi gorkhaa koi madaraasi

sarhad pe marane waalaa

har veer thaa bhaaratvaasi

jo khoon giraa parvat par

wo khoon thaa hindustaani

jo shaheed hue hain unki

zaraa yaad karo qurbaani

thi khoon se lath pat kaayaa

phir bhi bandhuk uthaake

dus dus ko ek ne maaraa

phir gir gaye hosh ganwaa ke

jab anth samay aayaa to

keh gaye ke ab marte hain

khush rehanaa desh ke pyaaron

ab hum to safar karte hain

kyaa log the wo deewaane

kyaa log the wo abhimaani

jo shaheed hue hain unki

zaraa yaad karo qurbaani

tum bhool naa jaao unko

is liye kahi ye kahaani

jo shaheed hue hain unki

zaraa yaad karo qurbaani

jai hind, jai hind ki senaa

jai hind, jai hind ki senaa

jai hind, jai hind, jai hind
