mera mehabub dekho to kya khub hai
sham dhalte hi aa machalta hai
usko mujhse nahi kam se kam hai
kam apna nikala to chalta hua
maha chalu hai bada chalu hai dilbar mera
maha chalu hai dilbar mera sari rat nachaye sari rat jagaye
sari rat nachaye sari rat jagaye bhul jaye hote hi sawera
maha chalu hai bada chalu hai dilbar mera mera o
maha chalu hai dilbar mera

aisi zuba jaise ke mithi chhuri ho
ho yaro ki niyat na itni buri ho
chhup chhupke aise jawani ko take
tijori me jaise koi chor jhanke
aisi zuba jaise ke mithi chhuri ho
dekho lutkar huyi mere dil ko khushi
mujhe aisa mila hai lutera maha chalu hai maha chalu
hai dilbar mera mera o maha chalu hai dilbar mera

tute koi bijli to aawaz aaye
chhute koi jab tir jag jan jaye
ke chupchap tu yu nishana lagaye
nishana lage aur nazar bhi na aaye
tute koi bijli to aawaz aaye
koi kaise bache chal kab kya chale
ke pata na chale koi tera maha chalu hai maha chalu
hai dilbar mera mera bada chalu hai dilbar mera
sari rat nachaye sari rat jagaye bhul jaye hote hi sawera
maha chalu hai maha chalu hai dilbar mera mera o
maha chalu hai dilbar mera maha chalu hai dilbar mera
