ae ri main to prem diwani
mera dard na jane koi
ae ri main to prem diwani
mera dard na jane koi

na main janu aaati vandan, na puja ki reet
hai anjani darsh diwani, meri pagal preet
liye re maine do naino ke, deepak liye sanjoye
ae ri main to prem diwani
mera dard na jane koi

aasha ke phulo ki mala, saanso ke sangeet
in par phuli chali rijhane, apne man ka meet
liye ri maine nain dor me, sapne liye piroye
ae ri main to prem diwani
mera dard na jane koi
ae ri main to prem diwani
mera dard na jane koi

Oh, friend, I am love's madwoman,
My sorrow, none can know.
Oh, friend, I am love's madwoman,
My sorrow, none can know.

I know no hymns, no rituals, no temple's grace,
A stranger I to worship, to that sacred space.
My love, a wild madness, a heart ablaze and free,
I bear the lamps of eyes, in tender memory.
Oh, friend, I am love's madwoman,
My sorrow, none can know.

A garland woven of hope's sweet, fragile bloom,
The music of my breath, escaping from this tomb.
I wander, drawn by longing, to entice my heart's true mate,
I thread the dreams I cherish, upon a lover's gate.
Oh, friend, I am love's madwoman,
My sorrow, none can know.
Oh, friend, I am love's madwoman,
My sorrow, none can know.
