O Maye Teri Mitti Bulaye To Lyrics
Teri Zameen Se Hum
Sirr Utha Ke Chale
Humein Hass Ke
Vida Kar Maa
Laal Hain Hum Tere
Yaad Karna Humein
Dhol Taashe Baja Kar Maa
O Maaye Teri Mitti Bulaye Toh
Ye Duniya Chhod Ke Aaa Jaayein
Tu Jo Aawaz Lagaye Toh
Tiranga Odh Ke Aa Jaayen
O Maaye Tere Kaam Nahin Aaye
Toh Phir Bekaar Jawani Hai
Bahayein Khoon Teri Khatir
Jitna Ganga Mein Paani Hai Maa!
Agar Jaan Jaati Hai Toh Jaye
Jaye Re Maaye, Kabhi Teri Aan Na Jaaye Re
Jala Denge Apni Hum Chitayein
Tujhpe O Maaye, Kabhi Koi Aanch Na Aaye Re
Tu Mere Liye, Main Tere Liye
Tere Hi Rahe, Mare Ya Jiye
Tere Hi Naghme Gaaye Jaate Jaate Maaye Re
O Maaye Teri Mitti Bulaye Toh
Ye Duniya Chhod Ke Aa Jaayein
Tu Jo Aawaz Lagaye Toh
Tiranga Odh Ke Aa Jaayein
Zara Dheere Dheere Loriyaan Gaa
Jaise Teri God Mein Aayi Hai Maa
Aayegi Aisi Meethi Si Neend Kahan
Kadmon Mein Tere Hum Hue Hain Fana
Maaye Teri Mehar Jo Humko Chuna
Hoti Hai Har Ik Wardi Shaheed Kahan
Maaye, Ye Duaa Toh har Sipahi Rab Se Karta Hai
Jaise Hum Mare Hain Desh Par Yun Kaun Marta Hai Haye
Meri Khusnaseebi Hai Yeh Maaye
Teri Galiyon Mein, Hawa Meri Raakh Udaaye Re
Jala Denge Apni Hum Chitayein
Tujhpe O Maaye Kabhi Koi Aanch Na Aaye Re
Tu Mere Liye, Main Tere Liye
Tere Hi Rahe, Mare Ya Jiye
Tere Hi Naghme Gaaye Jaate Jaate Maayi Re
O Maaye Teri Mitti Bulaye Toh
Ye Duniya Chhod Ke Aa Jaayein
Tu Humein Aawaz Lagaye Toh
Tiranga Odh Ke Aa Jaayein
O Maaye Tere Kaam Nahin Aaye
Toh Phir Bekaar Jawaani Hai
Bahayein Khoon Teri Khatir
Jitna Ganga Mein Paani Hai
