tera kaha maine kiya ab na kiya jaye re haye
tera kaha maine kiya ab na kiya jaye re haye
dekho mujhme raha kya jhoka koi hawa ka
leke mujhe ud hi na jaye tera kaha maine kiya
ab na kiya jaye re haye tera kaha maine kiya
ab na kiya jaye re haye dekho mujhme raha kya
jhoka koi hawa ka leke mujhe ud hi na jaye

itna kaso na ye bandhan ke bandhan ye tut jaye
panchi se khelo na aise ke hatho se chut jaye
sun ke meri bate kyu bekarar hai
sunle dilbar sunle ye shikwa hai pyar ka
kaahe mere dil ko jalaye tera kaha maine kiya
ab na kiya jaye re haye dekho mujhme raha kya
jhoka koi hawa ka leke mujhe ud hi na jaye

kuch hone wala ho aise tadapti hai damini
mausam ne chedi ho jaise toofano ki ragini
aur aise mausam me tujhse kya kahu ye haye
choti si nayya bhi toofano se khel jaye
jiya tera bhi dagmagaye tera kaha maine kiya
ab na kiya jaye re haye dekho mujhme raha kya
jhoka koi hawa ka leke mujhe ud hi na jaye

I did your bidding, once, I did, no more, alas.
I did your bidding, once, no more, alas.
Behold, within me, what remains?
A breath of wind, a fleeting guest,
Lest it should lift and carry me away.
I did your bidding, no more, alas.
I did your bidding, no more, alas.
Behold, within me, what remains?
A breath of wind, a fleeting guest,
Lest it should lift and carry me away.

Don't bind these bonds so tight, lest they shatter.
Don't play with a bird so, lest it slips your hold.
Why this unease, hearing my words?
Listen, beloved, hear the lament of love.
Why scorch my heart? I did your bidding, no more, alas.
Behold, within me, what remains?
A breath of wind, a fleeting guest,
Lest it should lift and carry me away.

Something is destined, as the lightning trembles.
The season has begun, the tempest's song it plays.
In such a weather, what should I say? Alas.
The small boat falters, facing the storm's sway.
Your heart too, will waver. I did your bidding, no more, alas.
Behold, within me, what remains?
A breath of wind, a fleeting guest,
Lest it should lift and carry me away.
