pukaartaa chalaa huuN maiṁ
Touch on each word to display its meaning
pukaartaa chalaa huuN maiN
I have set out, seeking
pukaartaa chalaa huuN maiN
galii galii bahaar kii
bas ek chhaaoN zulf kii
bas ek nigaah pyaar kii
I have set out, seeking
(in) every lane of spring
(for) just one shade of tresses
(for) just one look of love
ye dillgii ye shoxiyaaN salaam kii
yahiiN to baat ho rahii hai kaam kii
koii to muR ke dekh legaa is taraf
koii nazar to hogii mere naam kii
Greetings to these jests, these coquetries
this talk is being useful
Someone will turn back and start looking this way
Some gaze will be to my name
sunii merii sadaa to kis yaqiin se
ghaTaa utar ke aa gaii zamiin pe
rahii yahii lagan to ai dil-e-javaan
asar bhii ho rahegaa ek Hasiin pe
On hearing my call, with what a faith
did clouds descend and come to earth!
If this longing persists, oh, young heart,
there will be an effect on a beauty.
