dori ye khichi dori plne ki tune modi
mere sapno ko jhulaya sari raat
bhale bagiya teri chhodi bhale nindiya teri chori
bas itti si yad to rakhiyo mere pas
teri lad ki main teri lad ki main
teri lad ki main chhodungi na tera hath
teri lad ki main teri lad ki main
teri lad ki main chhodungi na tera hath

aa aa aa
babul more babul more
itni si arj mori sun le
teri lad ki main
rahungi teri teri lad ki main
kitni bhi main dur tose chahe rahu
jara aanch bhi to kabhi mujh pe
jo aati bhar jati thi ankhiya tor
phir aisa bhi kya tera mujh se bair
phir aisa bhi kya tera mujh se bair
kar parai mohe mukh liya kyu pher
pas hi apne rakh le kuchh der
ud jayega pakhi hote hi saver
teri lad ki main teri lad ki main
teri lad ki main chhodungi na tera hath

The cord, you pulled, the cradle's sway,
Bent to your will, throughout the night.
My dreams you cradled, come what may,
Though your garden's left, and sleep took flight.
Just this small memory, keep it near,
Mine of your love, and I'll not stray,
Mine of your love, banish all fear,
Mine of your love, I’ll never leave your way.

Ah, ah, ah…
My father, oh my father dear,
One small plea, I humbly send to thee,
Yours of love, I will be always near,
Your darling child, eternally.
Though distant lands may claim my tread,
If shadows fall, or pain should start,
Your eyes would weep, the tears you'd shed,
Then why this distance in your heart?
Then why this distance, this cold art?
Why turn from me, with broken face?
Hold me close, and play your part,
For morning's light will claim my space.
Mine of your love, and I'll not stray,
Mine of your love, I'll never leave your way.
