aadhi sachhi aadhi jhuthi teri prem kahani
aadhi sachhi aadhi jhuthi teri prem kahani
ya toh pura sachha ho ja ya phir kar le beimani
ho sajan farebiya farebi sajana
ho sajan farebiya farebi sajana
puri solah aane sachhi meri prem kahani sun sun sun
puri solah aane sachhi meri prem kahani
isme dudh hi dudh nahi jara sa bhi pani
chanchal goriye ganne di yeh poriye
ho chanchal goriye ganne di yeh poriye

nain milata kyun nahi re pas bithata kyun nahi re o ho ho
nain milata kyun nahi re pas bithata kyun nahi re
hu me tere bag ki bulbul tujhko chhed chhed udd jau
jal bichhata kyun nahi re, aankha mich ke pi le pi le
aankha mich ke ek ghut pi le meri chadhti jawani
ho sajan farebiya farebi sajana
ho sajan farebiya farebi sajana
puri solah aane sachhi meri prem kahani
isme dudh hi dudh nahi jara sa bhi pani
chanchal goriye ganne di yeh poriye
ho chanchal goriye gane di yeh poriye

aaon baitho pas jara baate kar le khas jara ho ho
aaon baitho pas jara baate kar le khas jara
arey umra padi hain pine ko me bund bund pi lunga
badhane do abhi pyas jara
kaise ek sath me ji lu bol bol bol
kaise ek sath me ji lu itni badi jindagani
chanchal goriye ganne di yeh poriye
ho chanchal goriye ganne di yeh poriye
aadhi sachhi aadhi jhuthi teri prem kahani
ya toh pura sachha ho ja ya phir kar le beimani
ho sajan farebiya farebi sajana
ho chanchal goriye ganne di yeh poriye
ho sajan farebiya farebi sajana

Your love, a tale half-truth, half-lie,
Your love, a tale half-truth, half-lie,
Be wholly true, or embrace deceit, goodbye.
Oh, my deceiving love, my deceptive one,
Oh, my deceiving love, my deceptive one,
My love's pure truth, sixteen annas bright, I impart, listen, listen!
My love's pure truth, sixteen annas bright.
Milk flows only, no water to find,
Oh, restless maiden, sugarcane is your bind,
Oh, restless maiden, sugarcane is your bind.

Why meet my gaze, yet keep your distance?
Why meet my gaze, yet keep your distance?
In your garden, I am a nightingale, teasing, then fleeing,
Why not set your snare? Close your eyes, and drink, drink,
Close your eyes, drink a single draught of my rising youth,
Oh, my deceiving love, my deceptive one,
Oh, my deceiving love, my deceptive one,
My love's pure truth, sixteen annas bright, I impart, listen, listen!
Milk flows only, no water to find,
Oh, restless maiden, sugarcane is your bind,
Oh, restless maiden, sugarcane is your bind.

Come, sit near, and share secrets, come,
Come, sit near, and share secrets, come,
A lifetime remains to drink, I'll sip drop by drop,
Let the thirst now grow, some.
How can I live at once, tell me, tell me,
How can I live at once, such a vast life to embrace?
Oh, restless maiden, sugarcane is your bind,
Oh, restless maiden, sugarcane is your bind,
Your love, a tale half-truth, half-lie,
Be wholly true, or embrace deceit, goodbye.
Oh, my deceiving love, my deceptive one,
Oh, restless maiden, sugarcane is your bind,
Oh, my deceiving love, my deceptive one.
