hai manjha tera tez
ye dil ki patang ko kaate haye
tujhi se katke ye
gire teri chaat pe aake haye
hai manjha tera tez
ye dil ki patang ko kaate haye
tujhi se katke ye
gire teri chaat pe aake haye

meri jaan chali jaye hai
tu jo mudke dekhe haye
tujhi se katke ye
gire teri chaat pe aake haye
hai manjha tera tez
ye dil ki patang ko kaate haye
titli thi main bawri si
idhar kabhi udhar kabhi
kaise aa thaheri teri chaat pe aake haye

manmaniyo se hai nazaare
kya darmiya hai ye humare
ho maan maniyo se hai nazaare
kya darmiya hai ye humare
dil kagaz ka ek panchhi
tu ambar sara haye

tujhe jo dekhe to
ye phur phur udd hi jaye haye
hai manjha tera tez
ye dil ki patang ko kaate haye
tujhi se katke ye
gire teri chaat pe aake haye
hai manjha tera tez
ye dil ki patang ko kaate haye
tujhi se katke ye
gire teri chaat pe aake haye

Your thread, a sharpened gleam,
Cuts the kite of my heart, alas.
Severed by you, it seems,
Falls upon your roof, alas.

Your thread, a sharpened gleam,
Cuts the kite of my heart, alas.
Severed by you, it seems,
Falls upon your roof, alas.

My soul departs, it seems,
If you but glance my way, alas.
Severed by you, it seems,
Falls upon your roof, alas.
Your thread, a sharpened gleam,
Cuts the kite of my heart, alas.
A butterfly, wild and free,
Now here, now there, you see,
How did I land, on your roof, alas?

These whims, a painted scene,
What lies between you and me?
These whims, a painted scene,
What lies between you and me?
My heart, a paper bird, you see,
And all the heavens, you are, alas.

If you but gaze, then
It flutters off, ah, free, alas.
Your thread, a sharpened gleam,
Cuts the kite of my heart, alas.
Severed by you, it seems,
Falls upon your roof, alas.
Your thread, a sharpened gleam,
Cuts the kite of my heart, alas.
Severed by you, it seems,
Falls upon your roof, alas.
