machli pani bina to ji nahi sakti
aurat zevar bina bhi rah nahi sakti
machli pani bina to ji nahi sakti
aurat zevar bina bhi rah nahi sakti
machli pani bina to ji nahi sakti
aurat zevar bina bhi rah nahi sakti
dil aya kisi pe to duniya se chupana kyun
mai pyar karun vo jane mera romeo
machli pani bina to ji nahi sakti
aurat zevar bina bhi rah nahi sakti

man mera jhum utha jab se mila hai pyar tera
nind gai chain gaya jab se mila dildar mera
aayi hai rangin ratein garm ho gai sanse
ankho se ankhe milaungi chahat jagaungi mai
machli pani bina to ji nahi sakti
aurat zevar bina bhi rah nahi sakti

A fish, it cannot live without the water's grace,
And a woman, she cannot live without the jewels that embrace.
A fish, it cannot live without the water's flow,
And a woman, she cannot live without the treasures that glow.
A fish, it cannot live without the water's keep,
And a woman, she cannot live without the adornments deep.
When love arrives, why hide it from the world's keen sight?
I'll love, and let him know, my very own Romeo's light.
A fish, it cannot live without the water's bound,
And a woman, she cannot live without the riches found.

My heart has danced and swayed since your love took hold,
Sleep has fled, peace has gone, since my beloved's told.
Now nights are painted bright, and breaths have grown so warm,
Eyes will meet with eyes, and passion shall transform.
A fish, it cannot live without the water's hold,
And a woman, she cannot live without the stories told.
