nahi samjhi re tu ek sidha sawal
samjhata hu mai tujhe dekar misal
hey bat thi yaar ek ber ki
bad ke ho gayi sawa sher ki
arey bad ke ho gayi sawa sher ki
bat thi yaar ek ber ki
bad ke ho gayi sawa ser ki
arey bad ke ho gayi sawa sher ki

jaise kairi se aam ban badne ke bad
jaise badti hai gend hawa bharne ke bad
jaise ek bund utha liye mirzo ki shan
jaise ek bulbula bade gumbad saman
jaise nikle hai bamb koi dharti ko fod
jaise jwalamukhi uthe parwat ko tod
jaise aanchal tale jale do do misal
jaise badal ke bich do do chanda ke thal
arey jaise jaise chhoti dulhan
nahi doli samaye
waise gori ka ang nahi choli samaye
hey bat thi yaar ek ber ki
badh ke ho gayi sawa sher ki
ha bad ke ho gayi sawa sher ki

hai tere pas kya ye mere dil se puchh
mere dil se nahi sari mahfil se puchh
ye jo ang daiya leke tufa utha
aye arey insaan to kya devta dol jaye
ghabrao nahi zara samjho hujur
ye hai maula ki den ye hai data ka nur
pade in pe nahi buri nazaro ki dhul
ye hai puja ke fal ye hai mandir ke phul
arey dali oo dali tan ki tere gulista ho gayi
ari oo bawari tu jawa ho gayi

bat samjhne me badi der ki
bad ke ho gayi sawa sher ki
arey bat samjhne me badi der ki
bad ke ho gayi sawa sher ki
ye bat thi yaar ek ber ki
bad ke ho gayi sawa sher ki
arey badh ke ho gayi sawa sher ki ha

You, you failed to grasp a simple plea,
So I paint a picture, for your soul to see.
Once a tiny berry, small and meek,
Now a lion's weight, the mountains speak.
Oh, a lion's weight, the mountains speak,
Once a tiny berry, small and meek,
Now a lion's weight, the mountains speak.
Oh, a lion's weight, the mountains speak.

Like mangoes born where once the mango lay,
Like a ball inflated, taking flight each day,
Like a droplet lifted, mirrored in the grand design,
Like a bubble swelling, reaching heights divine,
Like a bomb erupting, shattering the ground,
Like a volcano, where mountains are unbound,
Like twin lanterns burning, in a hidden place,
Like twin moons suspended, in the clouds embrace,
Like a bride so tiny, in a palanquin so new,
Like a maiden's spirit, too vast for her gown to imbue.
Once a tiny berry, small and meek,
Now a lion's weight, the mountains speak.
Yes, a lion's weight, the mountains speak.

Ask not my heart, but query your core,
Ask not my heart, but the whole world's lore.
The beauty you possess, a tempest's art,
Oh, not just men, but gods would lose their heart!
Fear not, but heed, and understand,
A gift from the Divine, a treasure from His hand.
May no shadow fall, no wicked eye's despair,
These are fruits of worship, flowers beyond compare.
Oh, the garden of your body has come to bloom,
Oh, you madcap maiden, you have escaped the tomb.

You took so long to understand my heart,
Now a lion's weight, the mountains start.
Oh, a lion's weight, the mountains start.
Now a lion's weight, the mountains start.
This was once a berry, small and meek,
Now a lion's weight, the mountains speak.
Oh, a lion's weight, the mountains speak. Yes.
