kaun jane har bahane
kyu mere dil laga muskurane
kaun jane har bahane
kyu mere dil laga muskurane kaun jane

chandani kyu satane lagi hai
kyu hasi lab pe aane lagi hai
kyu najar hai jhuki sans kyu hai ruki
jan dagmagane lagi dil me chupke chupke se
chede ye rangin tarane kaun jane har bahane
kyu mere dil laga muskurane kaun jane

hai hawa me asar ragini ka
dil dhadkata hai shayad kisi ka
wo nashili najar jag uthi hai idhar
cha gaya kyu shama bekhudi ka
kuch sawar ke kuch bihkar ke
jane dil ne kahe sab fasane
kaun jane har bahane
kyu mere dil laga muskurane kaun jane

Who knows the reason,
Why my heart begins to smile, for every reason?
Who knows the reason,
Why my heart begins to smile? Who knows?

Why does moonlight now torment?
Why does laughter on my lips present?
Why are eyes cast down, breath now still?
Life begins to tremble, secretly within,
It stirs these colorful melodies.
Who knows the reason,
Why my heart begins to smile? Who knows?

There's a spell in the air, of a melody's call,
The heart now beats, perhaps it's for someone's recall.
That intoxicating gaze has awakened, here and now,
Why has the world of ecstasy begun to enthrall?
Some things adorned, some things torn,
The heart tells tales, of all it has known.
Who knows the reason,
Why my heart begins to smile? Who knows?
