hath chhuda ke mere hatho se
aise na rutho meri bato se
aage na jana nai raho me
aana padega meri baho me
hath chhuda ke mere hatho se
aise na rutho meri bato se
aage na jana nai raho me
aana padega meri baho me
pagli o ruk pagli o ruk pagli

jal pari o meri jal pari
dekh le palat ke maujo ke ishare
man chali ari o man chali
teri berukhi se hanste hai kinare
aa dil me rakh lu mai tujhko jane jaa
hath chhuda ke mere hatho se
aise na rutho meri bato se
aage na jana nai raho me
aana padega meri baho me
pagli o ruk pagli o ruk pagli

phuljhadi bani hai phuljhadi
dil ki dhadkano se bekhabar jawani hans padi
o dekho hans padi mere dil ki rani meri zindagani
manjil pe aa pahuncha mera karva
hath chhuda ke mere hatho se
aise na rutho meri bato se
aage na jana nai raho me
aana padega meri baho me
hath chhuda ke mere hatho se
aise na rutho meri bato se
aage na jana nai raho me
aana padega meri baho me
pagli o ruk pagli o ruk pagli

From my grasp, you slip away,
Scoffing at the words I say.
Do not venture paths unknown,
Back to my embrace, you’ll be flown.
From my grasp, you slip away,
Scoffing at the words I say.
Do not venture paths unknown,
Back to my embrace, you’ll be flown.
Mad girl, oh halt, mad girl, halt.

Water nymph, my water nymph,
Turn, and heed the ocean's glyph.
Restless heart, oh, restless heart,
Your coldness makes the shores depart.
Let me hold you in my core, my dear,
From my grasp, you slip away,
Scoffing at the words I say.
Do not venture paths unknown,
Back to my embrace, you’ll be flown.
Mad girl, oh halt, mad girl, halt.

Sparkler bright, a sparkler's gleam,
Unaware of heart's swift dream,
Youth laughs, unheeding, bold,
My life, my queen, the story told.
My caravan, the journey’s done.
From my grasp, you slip away,
Scoffing at the words I say.
Do not venture paths unknown,
Back to my embrace, you’ll be flown.
From my grasp, you slip away,
Scoffing at the words I say.
Do not venture paths unknown,
Back to my embrace, you’ll be flown.
Mad girl, oh halt, mad girl, halt.
