ni main kahndi rah gayi
haye main kahndi rah gayi
na na dhola na

wo aake khawab mein
wo aake khawab mein
din ki kali khilane lage
dilo ki ujadi hui bastuya basaane lage
najar utha ke jo dekha to muskurane lage
hati jo pichhe to aage kadam badhane lage
hati jo pichhe to aage kadam badhane lage
ni main kahndi rah gayi
haye main kahndi rah gayi
na na dhola na

sabha mein baith ke kahne lage ki marte hai
tumhare sar ki kasam tum se pyar karte hai
tum se pyar karte hai
pasine sharm ke sunte hi mujhko aane lage
uthi to hath pakad kar
uthi to hath pakad kar mujhe baithane lage
uthi to hath pakad kar mujhe baithane lage
ni main kahndi rah gayi
haye main kahndi rah gayi
na na dhola na
hans de hans de bedardi ne phad li baah
hans de hans de bedardi ne phad li baah
ni main kahndi rah gayi
haye main kahndi rah gayi
na na dhola na

I kept on saying,
Oh, I kept on saying,
No, no, beloved, no.

He came into my dreams,
He came into my dreams,
To bloom the day's dark bud,
To rebuild hearts' fallen lands.
He looked up, and smiled on me,
I stepped back, he moved closer still,
I stepped back, he moved closer still.
I kept on saying,
Oh, I kept on saying,
No, no, beloved, no.

In the gathering, he declared, that he was dying,
Swearing by my head, he loved me true,
He loved me true,
Shame's sweat began to bloom on my brow,
I rose to leave, he took my hand,
I rose to leave, he took my hand, and made me sit,
I kept on saying,
Oh, I kept on saying,
No, no, beloved, no.
He laughed, the cruel one, seized my arm,
He laughed, the cruel one, seized my arm,
I kept on saying,
Oh, I kept on saying,
No, no, beloved, no.
