Lyrics transliterated:
Hmm; Chingari Koi Bhadke
Chingari Koi Bhadke; To Sawan Use Bujhaaye
Sawan Jo Agan Lagaaye; Use Kaun Bujhaaye
Ho Use Kaun Bujhaaye
Patjhad Jo Baag Ujaade; Woh Baag Bahaar Khilaaye
Jo Baag Bahaar Mein Ujade; Use Kaun Khilaaye
Ho Use Kaun Khilaaye
Humse Mat Poochho Kaise; Mandir Toota Sapno Ka
Humse Mat Poochho Kaise; Mandir Toota Sapno Ka
Logon Ki Baat Nahin Hai; Yeh Kissa Hai Apno Ka
Koi Dushman Thes Lagaaye; To Meet Jiya Behlaaye
Man Meet Jo Ghaav Lagaaye; Use Kaun Mitaaye
Na Jaane Kya Ho Jata; Jaane Hum Kya Kar Jaate
Na Jaane Kya Ho Jata; Jaane Hum Kya Kar Jaate
Peete Hain To Zinda Hain; Na Peete To Mar Jaate
Duniya Jo Pyaasa Rakkhe; To Madira Pyaas Bujhaaye
Madira Jo Pyaas Lagaaye; Use Kaun Bujhaaye
Ho Use Kaun Bujhaaye
Mana Toofan Ke Aage; Nahin Chalta Zor Kisi Ka
Mana Toofan Ke Aage; Nahin Chalta Zor Kisi Ka
Maujon Ka Dosh Nahin Hai; Yeh Dosh Hai Aur Kisi Ka
Majdhaar Mein Naiya Dole; To Maajhi Paar Lagaaye
Maajhi Jo Naav Duboye; Use Kaun Bachaaye
Ho Use Kaun Bachaaye; Chingari Hmm
