Lyrics of Main Maachis Ki Tili - मैं माचिस की तीली
mai machis ki tilli
mai machis ki tilli chamkili bhadkili
maine use fuk diya jisne meri najar se pili
mai machis ki tilli chamkili bhadkili
maine use fuk diya jisne meri najar se pili
mai machis ki tilli
mai kya janu re mai kya janu re sharmana ghabrana
maine sikha ji lahrana balkhana baat meri kitni hasi
bat meri kitni hasi ho jaise koi kali chatkili
mai machis ki tilli
mai machis ki tilli chamkili bhadkili
maine use fuk diya jisne meri najar se pili
mai machis ki tilli
sab kuch aata hai sab kuch aata hai tadpana tarsana
chalte chalte ji mud jana muskana dekh jara meri ada
haye dekh jara meri ada meri chal badi lachkili
mai machis ki tilli
mai machis ki tilli chamkili bhadkili
maine use fuk diya jisne meri najar se pili
mai machis ki tilli
mere aage na mere aage na ithlana itrana
jake oro ko lalchana lapkana
mai to kabhi bhul ke bhi haye mai to kabhi bhul ke
bhi teri dor na chodungi mai machis ki tilli
mai machis ki tilli chamkili bhadkili
maine use fuk diya jisne meri najar se pili
mai machis ki tilli chamkili bhadkili
maine use fuk diya jisne meri najar se pili
mai machis ki tilli
mai machis ki tilli chamkili bhadkili
maine use fuk diya jisne meri najar se pili
mai machis ki tilli chamkili bhadkili
maine use fuk diya jisne meri najar se pili
mai machis ki tilli
mai kya janu re mai kya janu re sharmana ghabrana
maine sikha ji lahrana balkhana baat meri kitni hasi
bat meri kitni hasi ho jaise koi kali chatkili
mai machis ki tilli
mai machis ki tilli chamkili bhadkili
maine use fuk diya jisne meri najar se pili
mai machis ki tilli
sab kuch aata hai sab kuch aata hai tadpana tarsana
chalte chalte ji mud jana muskana dekh jara meri ada
haye dekh jara meri ada meri chal badi lachkili
mai machis ki tilli
mai machis ki tilli chamkili bhadkili
maine use fuk diya jisne meri najar se pili
mai machis ki tilli
mere aage na mere aage na ithlana itrana
jake oro ko lalchana lapkana
mai to kabhi bhul ke bhi haye mai to kabhi bhul ke
bhi teri dor na chodungi mai machis ki tilli
mai machis ki tilli chamkili bhadkili
maine use fuk diya jisne meri najar se pili

mai machis ki tilli
Poetic Translation - Lyrics of Main Maachis Ki Tili - मैं माचिस की तीली
I am the matchstick,
a flame-bright, bold, defiant spark,
I've consumed the one, whose gaze saw me as stark.
I am the matchstick.
What do I know of shyness, fear, or art?
I've learned only to sway, to curve, to play my part,
My story, how it sings, a bud that bursts apart.
I am the matchstick,
a flame-bright, bold, defiant spark,
I've consumed the one, whose gaze saw me as stark.
I am the matchstick.
All the arts of torment, of thirst, I know,
to change my path while walking, to watch smiles grow,
Behold my grace, how supple is my flow.
I am the matchstick,
a flame-bright, bold, defiant spark,
I've consumed the one, whose gaze saw me as stark.
I am the matchstick.
Do not boast before me, nor preen and tease,
Go tempt and lure others, if you please,
For I, I will never, never leave your ease.
I am the matchstick,
a flame-bright, bold, defiant spark,
I've consumed the one, whose gaze saw me as stark.
I am the matchstick,
a flame-bright, bold, defiant spark,
I've consumed the one, whose gaze saw me as stark.
I am the matchstick.
a flame-bright, bold, defiant spark,
I've consumed the one, whose gaze saw me as stark.
I am the matchstick.
What do I know of shyness, fear, or art?
I've learned only to sway, to curve, to play my part,
My story, how it sings, a bud that bursts apart.
I am the matchstick,
a flame-bright, bold, defiant spark,
I've consumed the one, whose gaze saw me as stark.
I am the matchstick.
All the arts of torment, of thirst, I know,
to change my path while walking, to watch smiles grow,
Behold my grace, how supple is my flow.
I am the matchstick,
a flame-bright, bold, defiant spark,
I've consumed the one, whose gaze saw me as stark.
I am the matchstick.
Do not boast before me, nor preen and tease,
Go tempt and lure others, if you please,
For I, I will never, never leave your ease.
I am the matchstick,
a flame-bright, bold, defiant spark,
I've consumed the one, whose gaze saw me as stark.
I am the matchstick,
a flame-bright, bold, defiant spark,
I've consumed the one, whose gaze saw me as stark.
I am the matchstick.

Lovely song. Feels great to hear. Helen and Geeta Dutt combo is fantastic! Yea Helen was very much with Asha Bhosle, but her songs with Geeta Ji was really mind balsting too! Probably Geeta Ji gave Helen her first blockbuster song with ''Mera naam chin chin choo'' from Howrah Bridge.
But unfortunately this beautiful song was deleted from both VCD and DVD. Don't know why the Indian VCD,DVD manufacturers delete really beautiful songs?! Hopefully someday will get a VHS tape of this film.
Thanks.
