chota sa dekho mera nadan baalma ho nadan baalma
chota sa dekho mera nadan baalma oye nadan baalma
jane na jee ke armaan baalma
jane na jee ke armaan baalma
chota sa dekho mera nadan baalma ho nadan baalma
jane na jee ke armaan baalma
jane na jee ke armaan baalma

hatho me hath leke puchh kabhi haal mera
hatho me hath leke puchh kabhi haal mera
kaahe bhulaya rama dil se khayal mera
kaahe bhulaya rama dil se khayal mera
maan araj mori beimaan baalma ho beimaan baalma
maan araj mori beimaan baalma ho beimaan baalma
jane na jee ke armaan baalma
jane na jee ke armaan baalma

tere birha me aisi sudh budh khoyi, aisi sudh budh khoyi
tere birha me aisi sudh budh khoyi
galiyon me dolun jaise dole sharabi koyi
dole sharabi koyi, dole sharabi koyi
galiyon me dolun jaise dole sharabi koyi
dhak dhak mere jee ki pahchan baalma ho pahchan baalma
dhak dhak mere jee ki pahchan baalma ho pahchan baalma
jane na jee ke armaan baalma
jane na jee ke armaan baalma
chota sa dekho mera nadan baalma oye nadan baalma
jane na jee ke armaan baalma
jane na jee ke armaan baalma

My love, a child, so naive, my love, so naive,
A child's heart, unaware, my love, unaware,
Of the soul's desires,
Of the soul's desires.

Hand in hand, you used to ask of my well-being,
Hand in hand, you used to ask of my well-being,
Why have you forgotten me, my love, from your heart?
Why have you forgotten me, my love, from your heart?
Hear my plea, my faithless love, my faithless love,
Hear my plea, my faithless love, my faithless love,
Of the soul's desires,
Of the soul's desires.

In the grief of your absence, my senses have fled,
In the grief of your absence, my senses have fled,
Through the streets I wander, like a drunkard astray,
Like a drunkard, like a drunkard,
Through the streets I wander, like a drunkard astray,
The quickening of my heart, my sign, my love, my sign,
The quickening of my heart, my sign, my love, my sign,
Of the soul's desires,
Of the soul's desires.
My love, a child, so naive, my love, so naive,
Of the soul's desires,
Of the soul's desires.
