mitwa re o mitwa kaise din bite koi jatan bataja
mitwa re o mitwa kaise din bite koi jatan bataja
kaha jau jau kaha rah dikhajakaha jau jau kaha rah dikhaja
mitwa re o mitwamitwa re o mitwa o mitwa

chudi chingari lage shola lage bindiya
chudi chingari lage shola lage bindiya
ankhiyo se ud gayi ratiyo ki nindiya
halki si jhalak kabhi to dikhaja
halki si jhalak kabhi to dikhaja
kaha jau jau kaha rah dikhaja
mitwa re o mitwa mitwa re o mitwa o mitwa

jine na de man ki ye pyas adhuri
jine na de man ki ye pyas adhuri
tu bhi na jane kya hai mei majburi
aise koi kaise jiye tuhi samjha ja
aise koi kaise jiye tuhi samjha ja
marne se pahle ek jhalak dikha ja
mitwa re o mitwa mitwa re o mitwa
kaise din bite koi jatan bata ja
kaise din bite koi jatan bata ja
kaha jau jau kaha rah dikha ja
kaha jau jau kaha rah dikha ja

My friend, oh my friend, how the days pass,
tell me a way, show me a path.
My friend, oh my friend, how the days pass,
tell me a way, show me a path.
Where to go, where to turn, show me the way,
where to go, where to turn, show me the way.
My friend, oh my friend, my friend,
oh my friend, oh my friend, oh my friend.

Bangles burn, sparks ignite, a flame, a bindi,
bangles burn, sparks ignite, a flame, a bindi.
From my eyes, the nights' sleep has flown,
show me a glimpse, just a glimmer,
show me a glimpse, just a glimmer.
Where to go, where to turn, show me the way,
My friend, oh my friend, my friend,
oh my friend, oh my friend, oh my friend.

This incomplete thirst of the heart won't let me live,
this incomplete thirst of the heart won't let me live.
You don't know my plight, my compulsion,
how can one live like this, you explain,
how can one live like this, you explain.
Before death, show me a glimpse,
My friend, oh my friend, my friend, oh my friend.
How the days pass, tell me a way,
How the days pass, tell me a way,
How the days pass, tell me a way,
How the days pass, tell me a way.
