ek ladki bhigi bhagi si soti raton ko jagi si
mili ek ajnabi se koi aage na pichhe
tum hi kaho ye koi baat hai

dil hi dil me jali jati hai bigadi bigadi chali aati hai
jhunjhlati huyi balkhati huyi sawan ki suni raat me
mili ek ajnabi se koi aage na pichhe
tum hi kaho ye koi baat hai
ek ladki bhigi bhagi si roti raton me jagi si
mili ek ajnabi se koi aage na pichhe
tum hi kaho ye koi baat hai

dagmag dagmag lahki lahki bhuli bhatki bahki bahki
machli machli ghar se nikli pagli si kali raat me
mili ek ajnabi se koi aage na pichhe
tum hi kaho ye koi baat hai
ek ladki bhigi bhagi si roti raton me jagi si
mili ek ajnabi se koi aage na pichhe
tum hi kaho ye koi baat hai

tan bhiga hai sar gila hai
us ka koi pench bhi dhila hai
tanki jhukti chalti rukti
nikli andheri raat me mili ek ajnabi se
koi aage na pichhe tum hi kaho ye koi baat hai
ek ladki bhigi bhagi si roti raton me jagi si
mili ek ajnabi se koi aage na pichhe
tum hi kaho ye koi baat hai

A girl, drenched and fleeing, sleeps not,
Through sleepless nights she’s sought,
Met a stranger, no past, no future,
Tell me, is this a tale that's true?

In her heart, a burning ember, she comes undone,
Wrathful, she walks,
Twisting, turning, in the silent monsoon night,
Met a stranger, no past, no future,
Tell me, is this a tale that's true?
A girl, drenched and fleeing, weeps not,
Through sleepless nights she's sought,
Met a stranger, no past, no future,
Tell me, is this a tale that's true?

Stumbling, swaying, lost and astray,
Unraveled, wild and free,
She bursts forth, insane, from her home,
In the pitch-black night,
Met a stranger, no past, no future,
Tell me, is this a tale that's true?
A girl, drenched and fleeing, weeps not,
Through sleepless nights she's sought,
Met a stranger, no past, no future,
Tell me, is this a tale that's true?

Body soaked, head so wet,
Her defenses, they've been met.
She strains, she bends, she stops, she goes,
Emerging from the dark, she finds,
Met a stranger, no past, no future,
Tell me, is this a tale that's true?
A girl, drenched and fleeing, weeps not,
Through sleepless nights she's sought,
Met a stranger, no past, no future,
Tell me, is this a tale that's true?
