ek baar suno sarkar
ek baar suno sarkar
mera dil dhak dhak dhak dhak
mera dil dhak dhak dhak dhak
mera dil dhak dhak karta hai

sau baar kaha bekar
sau baar kaha bekar
bata kyo bak bak bak bak
bata kyo bak bak karta hai

mast ada ki machhli teri
aankho me balkhaye hai
dekh ke jisko, dil ka bagla
gash kha ke, gir jaye hai
ajab hai iski haalat
ye na jeeta hai, na marta hai
bata kyo bak bak bak bak
bata kyo bak bak karta hai

tere dil me mail hai
tu mujhse, chaale chalta hai
girgat ki bhanti tu pal me
sau sau rang badlta hai
jaan liya hai tuhjko maine
kaahe chak chak karta hai
mera dil dhak dhak dhak dhak
mera dil dhak dhak karta hai

dil ko dhobi ke paate par
sabun se dhulwaya hai
patak patak kar, is par tere
pyar ka rang chadhaya hai
dekh le bilkul saaf hai
jaise shisha lak lak karta hai
bata kyo bak bak bak bak
bata kyo bak bak karta hai
ek baar suno sarkar
ek baar suno sarkar
mera dil dhak dhak dhak dhak
mera dil dhak dhak dhak dhak
mera dil dhak dhak karta hai
sau baar kaha bekar
sau baar kaha bekar
bata kyo bak bak bak bak
bata kyo bak bak karta hai

Hear me, Sovereign, once,
Hear me, Sovereign, once,
My heart beats, drums, drums, drums,
My heart beats, drums, drums, drums,
My heart drums, ever drums.

A hundred times, it's useless,
A hundred times, it's vain,
Why do you chatter, chatter, chatter,
Why do you chatter, speak in vain?

Your alluring fish,
flits in your eyes, a dance,
A glance, and my heart's heron,
swoons, and falls in a trance.
Strange is this plight of mine,
Neither alive nor dead it lies,
Why do you chatter, chatter, chatter,
Why do you chatter, speak in vain?

In your heart, a stain resides,
You play games, a web you weave,
Like a chameleon, in moments,
A hundred colors you receive.
I have known you, through and through,
Why do you clamor, why deceive?
My heart beats, drums, drums, drums,
My heart drums, ever drums.

My heart, on the washerman's stone,
I cleansed it with soap so pure,
I beat and scrubbed, and on it,
Your love's hues, I did secure.
Behold, it is crystal clear,
Like a mirror, it does allure,
Why do you chatter, chatter, chatter,
Why do you chatter, speak in vain?
Hear me, Sovereign, once,
Hear me, Sovereign, once,
My heart beats, drums, drums, drums,
My heart beats, drums, drums, drums,
My heart drums, ever drums.
A hundred times, it's useless,
A hundred times, it's vain,
Why do you chatter, chatter, chatter,
Why do you chatter, speak in vain?
