wo aankhen kanwal banin aur khushk huin
aur kanwal banin aur khushk huin

koi dekhne aaya
aankhen aan ki aan mein kanwal banin aur khushk huin

aur daldal phaila simat gaya
aur raat ki chadar phail gai

koi dekhne aaya
aan ki aan mein daldal phaila simat gaya

ab hathi dant ke rasiya aaen to aaen
tum ghar ki maili chadar le kar aae the

aur jhadi mein chidiyon ke ande dhundte the
aur khush the

aur ande hath hi hath mein tut gae
tum roe the

aur rone wale ghar ja kar bhi rote hain
wo aankhen kanwal banin aur khushk huin

aur kanwal banin aur khushk huin
kal barish kaisi tez hui

nit baadal phaile diye jale
main chadar odh ke baith gaya

jo chadar odh ke baith gaya so chadar odh ke baith gaya
phir patthar jaisa din nikla

wo aankhen kanwal banin aur khushk huin aur kanwal banin aur khushk huin
tum jangal ja kar dekhoge

jab patte mitti mein dab jate hain
mitti ke ho jate hain

ab patton ka kya rona
aur aankhon ka kya rona

aur daldal ka kya rona
wo hathi dant ke rasiya to aaenge

main kandha dene chala kisi ko
aur kahin ko chal nikla

ab jogi banun ya sher kahun
ab aankhen kanwal banen ya bujh jaen

ab daldal phaile ya simte
ab daldal ka kya rona

ab aankhon ka kya rona
ab rone walon par rone walon ka kya rona
