haa o hone laga ye dil me dard kaisa
ai yai yai yo ai yai yai yo
mitha mitha kisi ke pyar ke jaisa
ai yai yai yo ai yai yai yo
koi batao koi batao koi batao
koi batao koi batao koi batao

dhak dhak dhadake zor zor se
chauke log sare dil ke shor se
chauke log sare dil ke shor se
kyo na puchhe wo hamase ye dillagi hai kya

kyo na puchhe wo hamase ye dillagi hai kya
koi batao koi batao koi batao
koi batao koi batao koi batao
hone laga ye dil me dard kaisa
ai yai yai yo ai yai yai yo

puchha jo maine to ye dil ne kaha
pyar me hota hai jo hone dijiye
dard sahi ye tadap hi sahi
hame to kaanto pe sone dijiye
rog hai mana par hai suhaana
ye bhi nahi to phir zindagi hai kya
ha ye bhi nahi to phir zindagi hai kya
koi batao koi batao koi batao
koi batao koi batao koi batao

kaun ye diwana dil me hai ghumata
jaise ke sharabi chale hai jhumata
jaise ke sharabi chale hai jhumata
hamne usako na roko ye bebasi hai kya
hamne usako na roko ye bebasi hai kya
koi batao koi batao koi batao
koi batao koi batao koi batao

Aching, it starts, this tremor in the heart,
Ayi yai yai yoon, ayi yai yai yoon,
Sweet like love, a brand new work of art,
Ayi yai yai yoon, ayi yai yai yoon.
Tell me, tell me, someone, tell me true,
Tell me, tell me, what is happening to you?

Pounding, it beats, a frantic, urgent plea,
Startled are the souls by this heart's decree.
Startled are the souls by this heart's decree.
Why not ask us what this longing can be?
Why not ask us what this longing can be?
Tell me, tell me, someone, tell me true,
Tell me, tell me, what is happening to you?
Aching, it starts, this tremor in the heart,
Ayi yai yai yoon, ayi yai yai yoon.

When I asked, the heart whispered low,
"Let it be, let love's true colours flow.
Let the pain be, the yearning, the ache,
Let me rest on thorns, for goodness sake."
A sickness it is, yet lovely and bright,
If this is not life, then what is the light?
If this is not life, then what is the light?
Tell me, tell me, someone, tell me true,
Tell me, tell me, what is happening to you?

Who is this mad one, roaming within?
How like a drunkard, reeling, to begin?
How like a drunkard, reeling, to begin?
Let us not stop him, what is this we do?
Let us not stop him, what is this we do?
Tell me, tell me, someone, tell me true,
Tell me, tell me, what is happening to you?
