Song Lyrics
| Mohammed Rafi | Mohammed Rafi |
| Jab jab bahar aaye aur phool muskuraye, Mujhe tum yaad aaye Mujhe tum yaad aaye Jab jab bahar aaye aur phool muskuraye, Mujhe tum yaad aaye Mujhe tum yaad aaye Jab jab bhi chand nikla aur tare jagmagaaye, Mujhe tum yaad aaye Mujhe tum yaad aaye. | As spring returns and the flowers blossom, I am reminded of you I am reminded of you As spring returns and the flowers blossom, I am reminded of you I am reminded of you When the moon peeks through the clouds and the stars shimmer in the sky I am reminded of you I am reminded of you |
| O … | O … |
| Apna koi tarana maine nahin banaaya Apna koi tarana maine nahin banaaya Tum ne mere labon pe har ek sur sajayaa O … Jab jab mere taraane duniya ne gungunaaye Mujhe tum yaad aaye Mujhe tum yaad aaye. | I never create any music of my own I never create any music of my own It is you who adorns my lips with your tunes! O … Whenever my songs are sung by the world I am reminded of you I am reminded of you |
| Ek pyar aur wafa ki tasveer maanta hoon Ek pyar aur wafa ki tasveer maanta hoon Tasveer kya tumhe main taqdeer manta hoon O … Dekhi nazar ne khushiyaan, ya dekhe gham ke saaye Mujhe tum yaad aaye Mujhe tum yaad aaye | For me, you are a living image of love and faith For me, you are a living image of love and faith For me, you are not only an image but also my destiny O … Whenever I see happiness in someone’s eyes, or see pain in them I am reminded of you I am reminded of you |
| Mumkin hai zindagaani kar jaaye bewafaai Mumkin hai zindagaani kar jaaye bewafaai Lekin yeh pyar woh hai jismein nahin judaai Is pyar ke fasaane, jab jab juba pe aaye Mujhe tum yaad aaye Mujhe tum yaad aaye | It is possible that life deceives us It is possible that life deceives us But this love is one that can’t be separated Whenever the stories of our love are narrated by people I am reminded of you I am reminded of you |
| Jab jab bahar aaye aur phool muskuraye, Mujhe tum yaad aaye Mujhe tum yaad aaye | As spring returns and the flowers blossom, I am reminded of you I am reminded of you |

O … |
Apna koi tarana maine nahin banaaya Apna koi tarana maine nahin banaaya Tum ne mere labon pe har ek sur sajayaa O … Jab jab mere taraane duniya ne gungunaaye Mujhe tum yaad aaye Mujhe tum yaad aaye. |
Ek pyar aur wafa ki tasveer maanta hoon Ek pyar aur wafa ki tasveer maanta hoon Tasveer kya tumhe main taqdeer manta hoon O … Dekhi nazar ne khushiyaan, ya dekhe gham ke saaye Mujhe tum yaad aaye Mujhe tum yaad aaye |
Mumkin hai zindagaani kar jaaye bewafaai Mumkin hai zindagaani kar jaaye bewafaai Lekin yeh pyar woh hai jismein nahin judaai Is pyar ke fasaane, jab jab juba pe aaye Mujhe tum yaad aaye Mujhe tum yaad aaye |
Jab jab bahar aaye aur phool muskuraye, Mujhe tum yaad aaye Mujhe tum yaad aaye |
