gharwale ghar tod chle hain
bachhe ma ko chhod chale hain
mamta kio inaam me kya milti hain
yahi sajaye
maye pyar ki ghataye
tahndi thandi hawaye
maye, pyar ki ghataye

jis ghar jin bachho ko ke karan
maine khoya sara jivan
main unko kaise bhulu
jab yaad mujhe wo aaye
maye pyar ki ghataye
tahndi thandi hawaye
maye, pyar ki ghataye
apne ghar apne bachho ke
liye jiye mar jaye
maye pyar ki ghataye
tahndi thandi hawaye
maye, pyar ki ghataye

The home departs, its walls now dust,
And children leave, abandoning trust.
What prize awaits a mother's heart,
But this decree, a brand new start?
Mothers, clouds of tender love,
Gentle breezes from above.
Mothers, clouds of tender love.

For the home and for the child,
I spent my life, both fierce and mild.
How can I forget their face?
When memories I must embrace.
Mothers, clouds of tender love,
Gentle breezes from above.
Mothers, clouds of tender love.

For their home, for their own,
They live and die, forever known.
Mothers, clouds of tender love,
Gentle breezes from above.
Mothers, clouds of tender love.
