dheeme dheeme gaaoon, hu, dheere dheere gaaoon, haule haule gaaoon, tere liye piya
(i am singing slowly, for you, o my lover)

dheeme dheeme gaaoon
hu, dheeme dheeme gaaoon, hu, dheere dheere gaaoon, haule haule gaaoon, tere liye piya

gun gun main gaati jaaoon, chhun chhun payal chhankaaoon
(i keep on humming and singing, i am making jingle sounds with silver jwelry on my feet)

sun sun kab se dohraaoon piya piya piya
(please listen, since long i am repeting, o lover)

gulshan mehke mehke, ye man behke behke
(the gardens are full of fragrance, these minds are intoxicated)

aur tan behke behke, kyon hain bata piya
(these bodies are not in control, why is it so, o lover)

man ki jo haalat hai ye, tan ki jo rangat hai ye,
(this condition of the mind, this color of the body)

teri mohabbat hai ye piya piya piya
(this is caused by your love, o lover)

gun gun main gaati jaaoon, chhun chhun payal chhankaaoon
sun sun kab se dohraaoon piya piya piya

piya piya o
zindagi mein tu aaya to, dhoop mein mila saaya to
(when you have arrived in my life, i received pleasing shadow in the scorching sunlight)

jaage naseeb mere, o
(my fate has become good)

anhoni ko tha hona, dhool ban gayee hai sona
(the impossible was to happen, the dust has turned into gold)

aake kareeb tere, o
(when i came near you)

kahoon aur kya tujhe main piya, o
(what more can i tell you, o lover)

teri nigahon mein hu, teri hi baahon mein hu
(i am in your eyesights, i am in your arms)

khaabo ki raaho mein hu piya piya piya
(i am onto the pathways of my dreams, o lover)

gun gun main gaati jaaoon, chhun chhun payal chhankaaoon
sun sun kab se dohraaoon piya piya piya

piya piya o
maine jo khushi paayee hai, jhoom ke jo rut aayee hai
(the happiness that i have achieved, the season that has come in full swing)

badle na rut wo kabhi, o
(may that season never change)

dil ko devta jo laage, sar jhuka hai jiske aage,
(the one whom the heart feels to be god, the one, in front of whom the head bows)

toote na but wo kabhi, o
(may that statue never get demolished)

kitni hai meethi kitni suhani, toone sunaaee hai jo kahani
(how sweet how beautiful is the story the that you have recounted to me)

main jo kho gayee, nayi ho gayi, o
(the more i indulged in that, the newer i became)

aankho mein taare chamke, raato mein jugnoo damke
(the stars shone in the eyes, the fireflies glittered in the nights)

mit gaye nishaan gam ke piya piya piya
(the scars of worries disappeared, o lover)

gun gun main gaati jaaoon, chhun chhun payal chhankaaoon
sun sun kab se dohraaoon piya piya piya
