jane kaisa hai mera diwana, kabhi apna sa lage, kabhi begana
jane kaisa hai mera diwana, kabhi apna sa lage, kabhi begana
badi bholi ho, ye bhi na jana, kabhi apno ko nahi kehte begana
badi bholi ho

yu bhi jita tha magar koyi arman na the
yu bhi jita tha magar koyi arman na the
jab talak aap mere dil ke mehman na the
dil ke mehman na the
tumse mehka hai mera virana, kabhi apno ko nahi kehte begana
jane kaisa hai mera diwana, kabhi apna sa lage, kabhi begana
jane kaisa hai

main woh aazad ghata tumne jisse bandh liya
main woh aazad ghata tumne jisse bandh liya
apni aankho me mujhe naya aakash diya
naya aakash diya
yahi chhota sa mera afsana, kabhi apna sa lage, kabhi begana
badi bholi ho, ye bhi na jana, kabhi apno ko nahi kehte begana
badi bholi ho

kabhi chhede hai pawan kabhi chhede hain piya
kabhi chhede hai pawan kabhi chhede hain piya
yahi to hoga sanam tumne jab pyar kiya
tumne jab pyar kiya
mere pas aao chhodo sharmana, kabhi apno ko nahi kehte begana
jane kaisa hai mera diwana, kabhi apna sa lage, kabhi begana

My Beloved, what a paradox,
Familiar as breath, yet distant as the rocks.
My Beloved, what a paradox,
Familiar as breath, yet distant as the rocks.
So naive, my love, you fail to see,
One does not call their own, a stranger to be.
So naive, you are.

I lived before, but no desires bloomed,
I lived before, by shadows entombed,
Until you entered, a guest within my heart,
A guest within my heart.
You blossomed my desert land, so green,
One does not call their own, a stranger, I mean.
My Beloved, what a paradox,
Familiar as breath, yet distant as the rocks.
My Beloved, what a—

I was a free cloud, you bound with grace,
I was a free cloud, you framed my space,
And in your eyes, a new sky took flight,
A new sky alight.
This, my simple tale, a subtle play,
Familiar as breath, yet turning away.
So naive, my love, you fail to see,
One does not call their own, a stranger to be.
So naive, you are.

The wind now teases, and love’s hand calls,
The wind now teases, and love’s hand enthralls,
This is the outcome, when love takes hold,
When love is bold.
Come close to me, and cast off shame,
One does not call their own, the same,
My Beloved, what a paradox,
Familiar as breath, yet distant as the rocks.
