maayeri maayeri maayeri maayeri
maddham se sur mein man mera gaaye
ban ke banwariya wo jab lehraye
maayeri maayeri maayeri maayeri
maddham se sur mein man mera gaaye
ban ke banwariya wo jab lehraye
bhigi si palke kaisa jadu chalaye
bhigi si palke kaisa jadu chalaye
bahki ye saanse meri kahi tham na jaye
maayeri maayeri maayeri maayeri

dhadkan meri kahti hai mujhse
man ye mera banwra hai kabse
redayo maa bole jo a maa ke
bagalo mor maa shekbe the ke
har ik lamha mere wohi rubru hai
kaise kahu main wohi meri aarzu hai
dil ki ye baate meri zuba kah na paye
maayeri maayeri maayeri maayeri

yaado ke jugnu raate jhilmilaye
parchhaiya meri ruh mein samaye
yaado ke jugnu raate jhilmilaye
parchhaiya meri ruh mein samaye
khamoshi dhire dhire kuch to gungunaye
badhne lagi madhoshi chain na aaye
ye aashiqui meri jaan le na jaye
maayeri maayeri
maddham se sur mein mann mera gaaye
ban ke banwariya wo jab lehraye
bhigi si palke kaisa jadu chalaye
bahki ye saanse meri kahi tham na jaye
maayeri maayeri

Mother, oh mother, mother, oh mother,
My heart sings in a hushed, gentle tone,
As it dances, a wild, whirling drone.
Mother, oh mother, mother, oh mother,
My heart sings in a hushed, gentle tone,
As it dances, a wild, whirling drone.
These tear-soaked lashes, what sorcery they weave,
These tear-soaked lashes, what sorcery they weave,
Lest my frenzied breaths cease to believe.
Mother, oh mother, mother, oh mother.

My pulse, it whispers, speaks to me now,
This heart of mine, a tempest, I avow.
Echoing mother’s voice, a sacred plea,
Lost in the gardens, she’s all I see.
Each breath, each moment, her face I embrace,
How to confess, she’s my heart's only space?
My heart's deep secrets, my tongue can't convey.
Mother, oh mother, mother, oh mother.

Fireflies of memory, the night they adorn,
Her shadows within my very soul are born.
Fireflies of memory, the night they adorn,
Her shadows within my very soul are born.
Silence, slowly, begins to hum a tune,
Intoxication rises, I'm consumed soon.
This love of mine, will it claim my boon?
Mother, oh mother,
My heart sings in a hushed, gentle tone,
As it dances, a wild, whirling drone.
These tear-soaked lashes, what sorcery they weave,
Lest my frenzied breaths cease to believe.
Mother, oh mother.
