Song lyrics:
Jalwa, Jalwa, Jalwa, Jalwa, Jalwa, Jalwa
Jismon Ka Hai Yeh Jalwa, Kismon Ka Hai Yeh Jalwa
Shoharat Bhi De Yeh Jalwa, Maksad Bhi De Yeh Jalwa

Dilkash Lage Yeh Jalwa, Mehkash Lage Yeh Jalwa
Nasha Hi Nasha Yeh Jalwa, Maja Hi Maja.., Nasha Hi Nasha

Har Kisi Pe Chha Jaata Haan Yeh Jalwa, Haan Yeh Jalwa
Karde Sabko Mastaana Hai Jamaana Deewaana
Din Mein Taarein Dikhalaata Haan Yeh Jalwa, Haan Yeh Jalwa
