baar baar mna kiya
hazaar baar mann kiya
meri galli mat aana
baar baar mna kiya

bairee phir bhi na maana
usne chhoda nahi aana jaana
baar baar mna kiya
meri galli mat aana
baar baar mna kiya

kabhi tang kare ya phake
kabhi mud mud dekhe
kabhi tang kare ya phake
kabhi mud mud dekhe
kabhi sitee bajaaye behimaan
laakh mera nasha hai
laakh akhiyaan churae
phir bhi sapano mein aaye behimaan
badi mushkil mein hai meri jaan

baar baar mna kiya
meri galli mat aana
hazaar baar mann kiya

vo toh raato ko aake
meri khidaki pe jaake
vo toh raato ko aake
meri khidaki pe jaake
hole hole pukaare mera naam
ghar mein jab koi jaage
muh chhupa ke vo bhaage
mujhpe aaye hajaaro ilazaam
jaane kya hoga mera anjaam

baar baar mna kiya
hazaar baar mann kiya
meri galli mat aana
baar baar mna kiya

maine firr bhi na maana
usne chhoda nahi aana jaana
bar bar mana kiya
meri galli mat aana
bar bar mana kiya

Again and again, I forbade it,
A thousand times, my heart desired it.
Do not come to my lane,
Again and again, I forbade it.

The foe, still, did not heed,
He would not cease to come and go.
Again and again, I forbade it,
Do not come to my lane,
Again and again, I forbade it.

Sometimes he provokes, sometimes he casts glances,
Sometimes he turns and looks back.
Sometimes he provokes, sometimes he casts glances,
Sometimes he turns and looks back.
Sometimes whistles, this heartless one,
A million times I am intoxicated,
A million eyes steal glances.
Yet, in dreams, he comes, heartless.
My soul is in a terrible plight.

Again and again, I forbade it,
Do not come to my lane,
A thousand times, my heart desired it.

He comes in the night,
And goes to my window,
He comes in the night,
And goes to my window,
Softly, he calls out my name.
When someone in the house wakes,
He hides his face and flees.
A thousand accusations fall on me.
Who knows what my fate will be.

Again and again, I forbade it,
A thousand times, my heart desired it,
Do not come to my lane,
Again and again, I forbade it.

I, too, then did not heed,
He would not cease to come and go.
Again and again, I forbade it,
Do not come to my lane,
Again and again, I forbade it.
