1. From the iconic song ‘Lag ja gale’
Ham Ko Mili Hain Aaj, Ye Ghadiyaan Nasib Se
Ji Bhar Ke Dekh Lijiye Ham Ko Karib Se
Phir Aap Ke Nasib Men Ye Baat Ho Na Ho
Shaayad Phir Is Janam Men Mulaaqaat Ho Na Ho
2. From the most epic Stayam Shivam Sundaram
Raam avadh mein
Raam Awadh mein, Kaashi mein Shiv, Kanhaa Vrindaavan mein
Dayaa karo Prabhu, dekho inko
Dayaa karo Prabhu, dekho inko
Har ghar ke aangan mein
Radha Mohan Sharanam
Satyam Shivam Sundaram
3. This lines of Raina Beeti Jaye
Kis sautan ne roki dagariya
Kis bairan se laagi nazariya
Nindiya na aaye, nindiya na aaye
Raina beeti jaye, Shyam na aaye.
4. From the most romantic ‘Kora Kaagaz’
Kora kaagaz tha yeh mann mera,
mera mera mera Likh diya naam iss mein tera,
Kora kaagaz tha yeh mann mera
Likh diya naam iss mein tera
Sona aangan tha jeevan mera Gayaa pyaar jis mein tera
5. The melody ‘Zindagi Pyar Ka Geet Hai’
Hai agar door manzil to kya
Raasta bhi hai mushkil to kya
Raat taaron bhari na mile to
Dil ka deepak jalana padega
Zindagi pyar ka geet hai
Isse har dil ko gaana padega
