Pani Aaankh Mein Bhar Kar Laya Ja Sakta Hai (by Abbas Tabish)
Pani Aaankh mein Bhar kar Laya
ja sakta hai
Ab
bhi Jalta Shehar Bachaya ja skta hai
Aik Muhabbat aur Woh Bhi Nakam
Muhabbat
Lekin is se Kaam Chalaya Ja skta hai
Dil par Pani Pine aati hain
Umeedein
Is Chashme Mein Zehar Milaya Ja skta hai
Mujh Gumnam se Poochte
hain Farhad o Majnu
Ishq mein ketna Naam Kamaya Ja skta hai
Yeh Mehtab yeh
Raat ki peshani ka Ghao
Syed Zafar Hussain and Abbas Tabish
