Touch on each word to display its meaning
baNjaaraa baNjaaraa dil meraa baNjaaraa
dekhaa jab se us ko dil meraa dil meraa baNjaaraa
na jaagaa na soyaa dil meraa dil meraa baNjaaraa
jo muskuraae vo , sab kuchh bhulaae vo
dekho bhaTak ke aae dil baNjaaraa !
Nomad, nomad, my heart is a nomad.
Upon seeing her, my heart is a nomad.
Neither sleeping nor staying awake, my heart, my heart is a nomad
When she smiles, she makes (it) forget everything
Look at my heart go astray and be a nomad!
baNjaaraa baNjaaraa us kii dhun meN dil baNjaaraa [ x2 ]
A nomad, a nomad, in her tune (my) heart is a nomad [x2]
lɛhraa ke dil se guzrtii hai vo
jaane kyaa giT-piT kartii hai vo
o o
haNs de to uRe dil meN hai titliyaaN
bemausam gire ham pe hai bijliyaaN
us par ye dil aa aa ke haaraa
She goes through my heart as waves having crashed
Who knows what incomprehensible language she speaks
Ho! Ho!
She has laughed and butterflies have flown in (my) heart
Unseasonable lightnings have fallen upon me
Upon her coming, my heart was conquered
baNjaaraa baNjaaraa us kii dhun meN dil baNjaaraa [ x2 ]
A nomad, a nomad, in her tune (my) heart is a nomad [x2]
baatoN meN us kii jaaduugrii [ x2 ]
nigaahoN meN us kii kaariigrii
saikRoN xaab us pe hai xarchaa kiye
phir bhii milne ko har roz tarasaa kiye
kɛh de to chhoR duuN maiN ye jag saaraa
There is sorcery in (her) words [x2]
There is craftsmanship in her looks
I have spent hundreds of sleeps on her
yet, I craved every day to join you
If/once she says, I shall abandon this whole world
baNjaaraa baNjaaraa us kii dhun meN dil baNjaaraa [ x2 ]
A nomad, a nomad, in her tune (my) heart is a nomad [x2]
