Great movie! I watched it quite some time ago. Perhaps it is time to watch again.

This is one of my favorite songs.

When I started learning and singing Bollywood songs a couple years ago, this song was one of the first, or probably the first song that I learned and sang, Thanks to karaoke.

Lyrics:

oh re taal mile nadi ke jal me

nadi mile sagar me

sagar mile kaun se jal me koi jane na

oh re tal mile nadi ke jal me

suraj ko dharti tarse dharti ko chandrama

dharti ko chandrama

pani me seep jaise pyaasi har aatmaa

pyasi har aatmaa

o mitava re e e e e

pani me seep jaise pyasi har aatmaa

boond chhupi kis baadal me koi jane na

oh re taal mile nadi ke jal me

nadi mile sagar me

sagar mile kaun se jal me koi jane na

oh re tal mile nadi ke jal me

anjane hotho par tu pahchane geet hai

pahachne geet hai

kal tak jo begane the janamo ke meet hai

janamo ke meet hai

o mitava re e e e

kal tak jo begane the janamo ke meet hai

kya hoga kaun se pal me koi jane na

oh re tal mile nadi ke jal me

nadi mile sagar me

sagar mile kaun se jal me koi jane na

oh re tal mile nadi ke jal me
