tumne todi sun lo mere harjaai
komal komal mere man ki shahnaai
tumne todi sun lo mere harjaai
komal komal mere man ki shahnaai
main teri galiyon ko ab chhod kaha jaaun
mere dilbar tum kyu bhule pyaar ko
samjhaaun kya man ko, sargam bhi kya gaaun
tum mera pehla pehla pyaar ho
tumne todi sun lo mere harjaai
komal komal mere man ki shahnaai

ek din dono mil jaayenge
aasha thi humko
pyaar ban ke aaye tum
ban gaye the sath hum
ye wada tha na chhodoge
gardish me humko
ho chuke paraye tum
yun tadapte rah gaye hum
kyu karaar banke, ho gaye juda tum
humko aaj tumne di hai ye saja kyu
kuch to samjho ae jaanam

ye baate to maalum hogi jaaneman tumko
devta samajh ke hum, pujte rahe har dam
mere jaanu bolo ab to jiwan me tumko
bhul paaye kaise hum, ye hume bata do tum
subah shaam hardam meri juba par
baar baar hai kyu ye naam tera jaanam
aaya hai kyu dil tum par
tumne todi sun lo mere harjaai
komal komal mere man ki shahnaai

ho tumne todi sun lo mere harjaai
komal komal mere man ki shahnaai
main teri galiyon ko ab chhod kaha jaaun
mere dilbar tum kyu bhule pyaar ko
samjhaaun kya man ko, sargam bhi kya gaaun
tum mera pehla pehla pyaar ho
tumne todi sun lo mere harjaai
komal komal mere man ki shahnaai
ho tumne todi sun lo mere harjaai
komal komal mere man ki shahnaai

You shattered, listen, my faithless one,
The tender, the soft, the shehnai of my soul.
You shattered, listen, my faithless one,
The tender, the soft, the shehnai of my soul.
Where do I wander, now, from your streets?
My beloved, why have you forgotten love's art?
How can I console this heart, how sing its pleas?
You were my first, my very first love's start.
You shattered, listen, my faithless one,
The tender, the soft, the shehnai of my soul.

Once, we dreamed, we'd meet as one,
Hope blossomed in our hearts.
You came, a love, a setting sun,
We walked as soulmates, not apart.
That vow, you made, you'd never stray,
Nor leave us in the storm.
Now, strangers, you have gone away,
And we, left only to be torn.
Why, comfort turned to parting's ache?
Why this torment, this bitter decree?
Understand, beloved, for pity's sake.

You knew, my love, these truths that bind,
We saw you as a God above.
My darling, tell me, ease my mind,
How can I ever cease to love?
Each morn, each eve, upon my tongue,
Your name, a whispered, burning plea.
Why does my heart for you still long?
You shattered, listen, my faithless one,
The tender, the soft, the shehnai of my soul.

You shattered, listen, my faithless one,
The tender, the soft, the shehnai of my soul.
Where do I wander, now, from your streets?
My beloved, why have you forgotten love's art?
How can I console this heart, how sing its pleas?
You were my first, my very first love's start.
You shattered, listen, my faithless one,
The tender, the soft, the shehnai of my soul.
You shattered, listen, my faithless one,
The tender, the soft, the shehnai of my soul.
