bol re saheli tu phir veena ban ke bol
bol re saheli tu phir veena ban ke bol
bol re saheli tu phir veena ban ke bol
ha bol re saheli tu phir veena ban ke bol

jivan ka geet sunana, jaise basant ka
bolat hai jiyara mera, sajni baar baar
ha jhume re dil ho
ha jhume re dil ho
bol re saheli tu phir veena ban ke bol

raat hamari, baat hamari
raah chune koi aur, maujo me kahin aur
peed hamari, sapne tumhare
kya jane koi aur
kaun salona aaya man me
banke man ka mor ha
dekhi hai jisne naino ki raahe
aaya wo chitchor
ha karne rang ke jod
ha karne rang ke jod
bol re saheli tu phir veena ban ke bol

ram gayi sajani, umang rang gayi
chhay gayi sajan ke ang ang me
sajan ke angana me sajni khadi
sajni khadi ha ha aankhiya ladi
dham dhama dol re, tu ek baar fir bol
dham dhama dol re, tu ek baar fir bol
ek baar fir bol, saheli ek baar fir bol
ek baar fir bol, saheli ek baar fir bol
bol re saheli tu phir veena ban ke bol
bol re saheli tu phir veena ban ke bol

Speak, oh friend, become the veena's voice,
Speak, oh friend, and let the music rejoice.
Speak, oh friend, let your spirit take flight,
Speak, oh friend, and bathe the world in light.

Sing the song of life, like a spring's gentle art,
My heart whispers, longing, to play its own part.
Yes, my heart dances, unbound and free,
Yes, my heart dances, eternally.
Speak, oh friend, become the veena's voice.

Our nights, our stories, etched in time's keep,
Paths chosen by others, in oceans so deep.
Our pain, your dreams, a secret untold,
What others may not know, our hearts enfold.
Who is this beauty, that stirs within,
A peacock of the heart, where new hopes begin?
He who has seen the paths of the eyes,
He has come to steal our souls and our cries.
Yes, to paint love's vibrant hues with care,
Yes, to paint love's vibrant hues to share.
Speak, oh friend, become the veena's voice.

Savor the joy, the colors blend,
In every limb of my beloved, I descend.
My love stands waiting in the courtyard of my heart,
My love stands, yes, my eyes now impart.
Let the drums resound, let your voice take hold,
Let the drums resound, a story to be told.
Speak once more, friend, sing again your song,
Speak once more, friend, where we all belong.
Speak, oh friend, become the veena's voice,
Speak, oh friend, let the music rejoice.
