Lyrics of Jhoom

“Mein ne tujhe dekha

hanstay huay gaalon mein;

be zar khayaalaon mein

husn ke hawaalon mein;

Sohni ke baalon mein

morni ki chalon mein;

matti ke pyaalon mein

peetal ke thaalon mein;

jitni tu milti jaaye

utni lagay thoree thoree,

jab bhee tu lay angrayi

aa ke mere oori,

to dil Jhoom Jhoom chale

Jhoom Jhoom chale.
