Aane wala pal jane wala hai

Aao na gale lagalo na

Aap ke kamre mein koi rehta hai

Aise na mujhe tum dekho

Apki ankhon me kuchh

Apne Pyar Ke Sapne

Bade Achhe lagte hai

Bahon me chale aao

Bahut door mujhe chale jana hai

Bechara dil kya kare

Bhigi bhigi rato me

Chehra hai ya chand khila

Chingari koyi bhadake

Chura liya hai tumne jo

Dekha Na Haay Re

Dil ne kaha chupke se

Do Lafzon Ki Hai

Doli me bithai ke kahar

Ek Ajnabi Haseena Se

Ek Ladki ko dekha to

Ghar Aja Ghir Ayi

Ghar jayegi tar jayegi

Gulabi ankhen jo teri dekhi

Gum hai kisi ke pyar me

Hame tumse pyaar kitna

Hum Bewafa Hargeez Na The

Hum dono do premi

Jaane ja dhundhta fir raha

Jaane Kya Baat Hai

Jai jai shiv shankar

Jane do na, Paas aao na

Jeewan ke din chhote sahi

Jete Dao Amay Deko Na

Jis Gali Mein Tera Ghar Na Ho Baalma

Kahin Karti Hogi

Kahin Na Ja, Aj Kahin Mat Ja

Kehna hai, Kehna hai

Kiska rasta dekhe

Kuchh Na Kaho, Kuchh Bhi Na Kaho

Kya yehi pyar hai

Kya Hua Tera Wada

Mai shayar badnam

Mere naina sawan bhadon

Meri bhigi bhigi si

Musafir Hu Yaro

Muthukodi Kawadi Hada

Nadiya se Dariya

Nahi Nahi Abhi Nahi

O hansini

Ab To Hai Tumse

Achha ji main haari

Choodi nahi ye mera

Dil Aaj Shayar Hai

Dil Pukare Aare Aare Aare

Din dhal jaye

Doli me bithai ke kahar

Hai apna dil to awara

Hum Apki Ankhon Me Is Dil Ko Basa De To

Jaaye To Jaaye Kahan

Jane Woh Kaise Log The

Jogi Jab Se tu Aya Mere Dware

Kahe Ko roye (Banegi Asha Teri)

Khoya Khoya Chand Khula Aasman

Kora Kagaz Tha Yeh Mann Mera

Megha chhaye aadhi raat

Na tum hame jano

O Re Majhi (Mere Sajan Hai Us Par)

Piya to se naina lage re

Roop tera mastana

Tere mere milan ki ye raina

Tere Mere Sapne Ab

Waqt ne kiya

Ye dil Diwana hai

Ye raat ye chandni fir kahan

Aa jane ja

Baar baar din ye aye (happy birthday)

Bhor bhaye panghat pe

Ek pyar ka nagma hai

Har karam apna karenge (Aye watan tere liye)

Ik na ik din ye kahani banegi

Jane chale jate hai kahan

Jane kyu log mohabbat kiya karte ha

Jot se jot jalate chalo

Lambi Judaai

Maika Piya Bulave

Mere deewanepan ki bhi

Mere dil me aj kya hai

Mere mehboob qayamat hogi

Na Ja Kahin Ab Na Ja

Patta Patta Buta Buta

Satyam Shivam Sundaram

Sawan ka mahina

So gaya ye jahan

Solah baras ki bali umar ko salam

Wada tera wada

Woh Hai Zara Khafa Khafa

Ye Jeevan Hai

Aur is dil me kya rakha hai

Chand si mehbooba ho

Chandan sa badan

Dil ko dekho chehra na dekho

Dil lootne wale jadugar

Hai Preet Jaha Ki Reet Sada

Kasme vade pyar wafa sab

Koi Jab Tumhara Hriday Tod De…

Laila main laila

Neele Neele Ambar Par

O saathi re

Pal pal dil ke paas

Zindagi Ka Safar

Aaja sanam madhur chandni mein hum

Aawara hoon

Ajeeb Dastaan Hai Ye

Awaz de kaha hai

Awaz deke hame tum bulao

Chhoti si ye zindgani re

Ehsaan Tera Hoga Mujh Par

Ghar Aaya Mera Pardesi

Gumnam hai koi

Itni Haseen Itni Jawa Raat Kya Kare…

Jane Kahan Gaye Wo Din

Jaun kahan bata aye dil

Jeena Yahan Merna Yahan

Jhanak Jhanak Tori Baje Payaliya

Kaun hai jo sapno me aya

Mai Piya Teri Tu Mane Ya Na Mane

Rasik Balma

Sau Saal Pehle Mujhe Tumse Pyar Tha…

Tera Mera Pyar Amar

Tumhen yaad karte karte

Abhi naa jao chhod kar

Seene me jalan

Tumhe dekhti hu…

Tumhe ho na ho

Tumhe ho na ho mujhko to

Ye dil aur unki nigahon ke saye

Chalo ik bar fir se

Darshan Do Ghanshyam Nath

Itni Haseen Itni Jawa Raat Kya Kare…

Kisi Patthar Ki Murat Se

Neele Gagan Ke Tale

Tujhe Suraj Kahu ya Chanda

Tujhko rakkhe ram

Tumhari Nazar Kyu Khafa Ho Gai

Ye raatein ye mausam ye nadi ka kinara

Chhoo kar mere man ko

Chhupa Lo yun Dil me

Haste Haste Kat Jaye Raste

Jab koi baat bigad jaaye

Ka Karu Sajni Aye na baalam

Kaha tak ye man ko

Kya mausam hai (Chal kahin door nikal jaye)

Man re tu kahe na dhir dhare

My heart is beating

Oh Re Taal Mile

Pardesiya ye sach hai piya

Tere Jaisa Yaar Kahan

Ik hasee shaam ko

Lag Ja Gale

Mai ye soch kar uske dar se

Naina Barse Rim jhim Rim jhim

Naino me badra chhaye

Sapne me sajan se do batein

Tere liye

Tumse kahoon ek baat paron se halki halki

Aap ke haseen rukh pe

Babuji dheere chalna

Chain se humko kabhi

Isharo isharo me dil lene wale

Pukarta chalaa hun mein

Bachpan ki mohabbat ko

Ik Baat Kahun Mere Piya

Man Tadpat Hari Darshan Ko

Nanha Munna Rahi Hu

Sawan Aaye Ya Na

Aha rimjhim ke ye pyare pyare

Aja re mai to kab se

Duronto Ghurnir Eyi Legechhe Paak

Itna na mujhase tu pyar badha

Jaa re jaa re ure jaa re paakhi

Janeman Janeman Tere Do Nayan

Kahin door jab din dhal jaye

Keno kichhu kotha bolo na

Maine Tere Liye Hi Saat Rang Ke

O Mor Moyna Go

O Sajnaa, barakha bahaar aayee

Suhana safar aur ye

Kaisi Hai Ye Rut Ke Jisme

Main Kabhi Batlata Nahin (Maa)

Man Mast Magan

Meri Zindagi Me Aye Ho

Mitwa (Mere man ye bata de tu)

Socho ke Jheelo ka shehar ho

Suno gaur sey duniya walon

Yaar illahi mere

Brishti Pade Tapur Tupur

Dur hai kinara

Ek daal par tota bole

Ghungroo ki tarah

Shyam teri bansi

Bheege hont tere

Haye mera dil churake le gaya

Ye moh moh ke dhaage

Ik aisi ladki thi

Tum Dil ki dhadkan me

Tumhe apna banaane ki kasam / ka junoo

Ae Zindagi Gale Laga Le

Kanmani Anbodu Kadhalan

Surmayee ankhiyon me

Thumbi wa thumpakkudathin

Aaoge jab tum o saajna

Alvida, alvida

Bheegi Bheegi Si Hai Raatein

Gerua (Dhoop se nikal ke)

Hawayein (Le jaye jane kaha)

Hum rahe ya na rahe kal

Janam janam janam

Tum mile to jeena aa gaya

Tum se Hi (Na hai ye paana…)
