mai peeke nahi aaya mai peeke nahi aaya
mai peeke nahi aaya mai peeke nahi aaya

are masti bhari aankho se do jam chura laya
mai peeke nahi aaya mai peeke nahi aaya

masti meri aankho me botal se nahi lee hai
saki se nahi mangi chullu se nahi pee hai
behosh nahi fir bhi mai hosh gawa aaya
mai peeke nahi aaya mai peeke nahi aaya

jina kise kahte hai jee kar bhi nahi samjha
jina kise kahte hai jee kar bhi nahi samjha
pine kaa maja kya hai pee kar bhi nahi samjha
pyala mere hotho tak aa kar bhi nahi aaya
mai peeke nahi aaya mai peeke nahi aaya

apne hi khyalo ko maykhana banaya hai
apne hi khyalo ko maykhana banaya hai
tute hue ik dil se paymana banaya hai
sawan ki ghatao ko aankho me chupa laya
mai peeke nahi aaya mai peeke nahi aaya

I came not drunk, I came not drunk,
I came not drunk, I came not drunk.

From eyes alight with joy, I stole two cups,
I came not drunk, I came not drunk.

The revelry in my eyes, from no bottle drawn,
From no cupbearer, no sip at dawn.
Unconscious, no, yet my senses flown,
I came not drunk, I came not drunk.

What life truly is, living never showed,
What life truly is, living never showed,
The pleasure of drink, drinking never bestowed,
My chalice, though near, to my lips it didn't flow,
I came not drunk, I came not drunk.

My own thoughts, a tavern I made,
My own thoughts, a tavern I made,
From a broken heart, a goblet I played,
The monsoon's dark clouds, in my eyes I laid,
I came not drunk, I came not drunk.
