Lyrics

Ishq Daa Charkha
Dukhan Diya Puniyan
Jiyon Jiyon Katti Jaavan
Hon Payiyaan Gunniyaan

Mera Eh Charkha Nolakha Kuray
Ehnoo Katdi Katdi Kattaan Kuray

Har Charkhe De Geare
Main Tenu Yaad Kardi.
Kadi Aa Tatri De Vehre
Mein Tenu Yaad Kardi…

Tere Bajon Dil Deya Mehrama Ve
Saada Jeona Kehre Chajj Ve.
Mere Loon Loon Vich Meri Nas Nas Vich
Teri Yaad Da Toomba Vajda Ve
