neel kamal muskaye
ha neel kamal muskaye
bhanwara jhuthi kasame khaye
neel kamal muskaye

hu basari janki sanam jane
meet kahe adna pahe gane
meet kahe adna pahe gane
raghu to se udd haye
raghu to se udd haye
phul phul neel kamal muskaye
phul phul neel kamal muskaye
bhanwar jhuthi kasame khaye
neel kamal muskaye

dekh sakoge kaise chehare
jag jirale sukun dete hai
jaise banware kali kali muskuaye
jaise bhi geet sunaye
jab tose jaye
sathi juthi kasme khaye
jab tose jaye
sathi juthi kasme khaye
sun sun neel kamal muskaye
sun sun neel kamal muskaye
bhanwara jhuthi kasame khaye
neel kamal muskaye

Blue lotus softly smiles,
Blue lotus softly smiles,
The bumblebee whispers false vows,
Blue lotus softly smiles.

My love, Janaki knows,
Friends say, “Don't cling, don't count,”
Friends say, “Don't cling, don't count,”
From your Raghu, I must fly,
From your Raghu, I must fly,
Flower to flower, blue lotus softly smiles,
Flower to flower, blue lotus softly smiles,
The bumblebee whispers false vows,
Blue lotus softly smiles.

How will you bear to see my face?
The world’s wounds offer peace,
Like a madman, I darkly smile,
Like a song I sing,
When I must leave you,
Friends whisper false vows,
When I must leave you,
Friends whisper false vows,
Hearing this, blue lotus softly smiles,
Hearing this, blue lotus softly smiles,
The bumblebee whispers false vows,
Blue lotus softly smiles.
