shishe ki hu main shishe ki hu
shishe ki hu main shishe ki hu
haye chhedo na mujhko
tut jaungi, tut jaungi, tut jaungi main
shishe ki hu main shishe ki hu
shishe ki hu main shishe ki hu

najauk gardan naram kalayi
najauk gardan naram kalayi
chikna badan hai mera
wajan jawani ka hai uspe
sambhalna mushkil mera
dar lagta hai fisal gayi to
dar lagta hai fisal gayi to
fut jaungi, fut jaungi, fut jaungi main
shishe ki hu main shishe ki hu
shishe ki hu main shishe ki hu

kaan me jhumka daal agar main
kaan me jhumka daal agar main
thumka kahin laga du
jiske aage jhum ke naachu
dil me aag laga du
dil me sama ke chain kisi ka
dil me sama ke chain kisi ka
lut jaungi, lut jaungi, lut jaungi main
shishe ki hu main shishe ki hu
shishe ki hu main shishe ki hu

parda sa hai najar ke aage
parda sa hai najar ke aage
parde pichhe kya hai
main to usse milna chahu
uski marji kya hai
samne aaye warna kasam se
samne aaye warna kasam se
ruth jaungi, ruth jaungi, ruth jaungi main
shishe ki hu main shishe ki hu
shishe ki hu main shishe ki hu
haye chhedo na mujhko
tut jaungi, tut jaungi, tut jaungi main
shishe ki hu main shishe ki hu
shishe ki hu main shishe ki hu

I am of glass, I am of glass,
I am of glass, I am of glass.
Ah, do not touch, do not tease,
I will shatter, I will shatter, shatter into pieces.
I am of glass, I am of glass,
I am of glass, I am of glass.

A delicate neck, a tender wrist,
A delicate neck, a tender wrist,
My body, smooth and bright.
The weight of youth upon me,
To balance, a losing fight.
Fear whispers, should I slip,
Fear whispers, should I slip,
I will break, I will break, break into splinters.
I am of glass, I am of glass,
I am of glass, I am of glass.

If in my ear a trinket hangs,
If in my ear a trinket hangs,
And I begin to sway,
Before whom I may dance and turn,
And set the heart ablaze,
To harbor peace within a heart,
To harbor peace within a heart,
I will be lost, I will be lost, lost to the world.
I am of glass, I am of glass,
I am of glass, I am of glass.

A veil hangs before the eyes,
A veil hangs before the eyes,
What lies behind the screen?
I long to meet the unseen,
What does its will convene?
Come forth, or by my soul I swear,
Come forth, or by my soul I swear,
I will be gone, I will be gone, gone from your sight.
I am of glass, I am of glass,
I am of glass, I am of glass.
Ah, do not touch, do not tease,
I will shatter, I will shatter, shatter into pieces.
I am of glass, I am of glass,
I am of glass, I am of glass.
