Lyrics with Guitar Chords

Intro

He he he aa haan haan haan

Mukhda

[Am] Mere mehboob qayamat hogi
[G] Aaj ruswa teri galiyon mein mohabbat [Am] hogi

[Am] Meri nazrein to gila karti hain
[G] Tere dil ko bhi sanam tujhse shikaayat [F] hogi
[E] Mere mehboob...

Antara 1

[Am] Teri gali main aata sanam
[G] Nagma wafa ka gaata sanam

[Am] Tujhse suna na jaata sanam
[G] Phir aaj idhar aaya hoon magar

[F] Ye kehne main deewana
[G] Khatm bas aaj ye [E] wahshat hogi

[Am] Aaj ruswa teri galiyon mein mohabbat [G] hogi
[E] Mere mehboob...

Antara 2

[Am] Meri tarah tu aahein bhare
[G] Tu bhi kisi se pyaar kare

[Am] Aur rahe wo tujhse pare
[G] Tune o sanam dhaaye hain sitam

[F] To ye tu bhool na jaana
[G] Ke na tujhpe bhi [E] inaayat hogi

[Am] Aaj ruswa teri galiyon mein mohabbat [G] hogi

Final Mukhda

[Am] Mere mehboob qayamat hogi
[G] Aaj ruswa teri galiyon mein mohabbat [Am] hogi

[Am] Meri nazrein to gila karti hain
[G] Tere dil ko bhi sanam tujhse shikaayat [F] hogi

[E] Mere mehboob...

[Am] Mere mehboob qayamat hogi
[G] Aaj ruswa teri galiyon mein mohabbat [Am] hogi

Let the final Am chord ring.

Easy Chord Progression

If you're a beginner, start with these four chords:

Am → G → F → E

Practice the changes slowly before adding the complete strumming pattern.

The F major chord may be difficult if you're new to barre chords. You can use an easier F shape while learning the song.

Guitar Tip

The song sounds best when played with a smooth and slightly dramatic rhythm.

Try this arrangement:

Intro: Light fingerpicking
Mukhda: Soft D-DU-UDU
Antara: Gentle strumming
Final Mukhda: Slightly stronger strumming
Ending: Slow downstrokes

Don't rush the vocal phrases. Let the chords ring between the lines to retain the emotional feel of the original.

Difficulty

Beginner / Intermediate

The main progression is quite simple, but smooth transitions between Am, G, F and E will make a big difference to the overall sound.
