o jiya lahraye khushi me uda jaye
na jane ise kya ho gaya
o jiya lahraye khushi me uda jaye
na jane ise kya ho gaya

o chhed di ragini in hawao ne kya
rang bikhra diye in ghatao ne kya
o chhed di ragini in hawao ne kya
rang bikhra diye in ghatao ne kya
o kali khil jaye mera dil gaaye
na jane ise kya ho gaya
o jiya lahraye khushi me uda jaye
na jane ise kya ho gaya

o aaj mane nahi haye meri najar
lakh roku ise jane dekhe kidhar
o aaj mane nahi haye meri najar
lakh roku ise jane dekhe kidhar
o kabhi muskaye kabhi ye sharmaye
na jane ise kya ho gaya
o jiya lahraye khushi me uda jaye
na jane ise kya ho gaya

o dil ki dhadkan bhi kya geet gaane lagi
mujhe apne se bhi shram aane lagi
o dil ki dhadkan bhi kya geet gaane lagi
mujhe apne se bhi shram aane lagi
o aankh jhuk jaye kadam ruk jaye
na jane ise kya ho gaya
o jiya lahraye khushi me uda jaye
na jane ise kya ho gaya

Oh, the soul now dances, in joy takes flight,
What has happened, I know not tonight.
Oh, the soul now dances, in joy takes flight,
What has happened, I know not tonight.

Oh, what tune have the breezes begun?
What colors are scattered, by clouds of the sun?
Oh, what tune have the breezes begun?
What colors are scattered, by clouds of the sun?
Oh, the bud now blossoms, my heart sings along,
What has happened, I know not where I belong.
The soul now dances, in joy takes flight,
What has happened, I know not tonight.

Oh, today my eyes, will not obey,
Though I try to stop them, they yearn to stray.
Oh, today my eyes, will not obey,
Though I try to stop them, they yearn to stray.
Oh, it smiles at times, at times does shy,
What has happened, beneath the sky.
The soul now dances, in joy takes flight,
What has happened, I know not tonight.

Oh, my heart's own rhythm, has started to sing,
From myself even, a shy blush I bring.
Oh, my heart's own rhythm, has started to sing,
From myself even, a shy blush I bring.
Oh, the eyes now lower, the steps now cease,
What has happened, to this heart's release.
The soul now dances, in joy takes flight,
What has happened, I know not tonight.
