kabhi kabhi tera maikhana, yaad aaye bahut
kabhi kabhi tera maikhana, yaad aaye bahut
ki ek bund na pi, aur ladkhadaye bahut
kabhi kabhi tera maikhana, yaad aaye bahut

kitaab-e-dil ko jo, paani me fenk aaye the
kitaab-e-dil ko jo, paani me fenk aaye the
tere diye huye kuchh phul, yaad aye bahut
tere diye huye kuchh phul, yaad aye bahut
ki ek bund na pi, aur ladkhadaye bahut
kabhi kabhi tera maikhana, yaad aaye bahut

mila tha raah me ek aansuo ka saudagar
aansuo ka saudagar, aansuo ka saudagar
aansuo ka saudagar
mila tha raah me ek aansuo ka saudagar
ham unki aankh ki moti, kharid laye bahut
ham unki aankh ki moti, kharid laye bahut
ki ek bund na pi, aur ladkhadaye bahut
kabhi kabhi tera maikhana, yaad aaye bahut

wo roz roz jo bichhade, to kaun yaad kare
wo roz roz jo bichhade, to kaun yaad kare
wo roz roz jo bichhade
bichhade bichhade bichhade bichhade
jo bichhade to kaun yaad kare
wo roz roz jo bichhade, to kaun yaad kare
wo ek roz na aai, to yaad aaye bahut
wo ek roz na aai, to yaad aaye bahut
ki ek bund na pi, aur ladkhadaye bahut
kabhi kabhi tera maikhana, yaad aaye bahut
kabhi kabhi tera maikhana, yaad aaye bahut

Sometimes your tavern, oh, it haunts my soul,
Sometimes your tavern, a memory whole,
Though not a drop was touched, I stumbled, I fell,
Sometimes your tavern, the echoes compel.

The heart's lost scripture, cast into the tide,
The heart's lost scripture, where secrets reside,
The blooms you offered, their essence I crave,
The blooms you offered, now blooming in the grave,
Though not a drop was touched, I stumbled, I fell,
Sometimes your tavern, the echoes compel.

A merchant of tears, encountered on the way,
A merchant of tears, where sorrows hold sway,
A merchant of tears, in shadows they stay,
A merchant of tears, in shadows they sway,
Their ocular pearls, in payment I gave,
Their ocular pearls, the price I did pay,
Though not a drop was touched, I stumbled, I fell,
Sometimes your tavern, the echoes compel.

Those who depart daily, who remembers their trace?
Those who depart daily, lost in time and space?
Those who depart daily, without a trace?
Departed, departed, departed, without a trace.
Those who depart daily, where echoes embrace?
If one day she lingers, a void I embrace,
If one day she lingers, then memory's hold,
If one day she lingers, a story unfolds,
Though not a drop was touched, I stumbled, I fell,
Sometimes your tavern, the echoes compel.
Sometimes your tavern, oh, it haunts my soul.
