Jab choṭ kabhee mere lag jaatee thee
To aȧkh teree bhee to bhar aatee thee
Maȧ.. O maȧ…
Ek chhoṭee see phoȯnk se teree
Sabhee dard mere hote the gam
Aaj bhee koee chot lage to
Yaad aatee ho
Aaj bhee meree aȧkh bhare to
Yaad aatee ho
Maȧ.. meree maȧ
Teree baatȯ mė
apnee har ik mȧi
Uljhan ka hal paa letaa thaa
Tere hathȯ kee
roṭee aksar hee
Bhookh se zyaadaa
khaa letaa thaa
Teraa hissa mȧi
teraa kissaa mȧi
Jo sabko sunaatee ho tum
Aaj bhi meree
baat chale to
Yaad aatee ho
Maȧ.. meree maȧ
Kone ko thaame
tere aanchal ke
Be-fikra mȧi so jaataa thaa
Mere dil mė kyaa hai
tere binaa maȧ
Koee samjhaa hee
naa paataa thaa
Jo ho sang too naa
to ho jag sunaa
Pyaar itnaa jataatee ho tum
Aaj bhee koee saaz lage to
Yaad aatee ho
Maȧ.. meree maȧ
Whenever I used to get bruised, Your eyes used to brim with tears. With one gentle blow of wind from Your mouth, All my pains used to disappear. Today also (Even today), whenever I get bruised, I remember You. Today also, when my eyes brim with tears, I remember You
In every talk of Yours, I would find, The solution to all my problems. The roti/chappati (Indian bread) made by Your hands, I used to eat more than my actual hunger. I’m a part of You, I’m a tale of Yours; That You make everyone hear. Today also, whenever there’s a mention of me, I remember You. Today also, when my eyes brim with tears, I remember You
Holding the corner of Your dupatta (Dupatta is a cloth covering the top of a dress and is sometimes even used as a veil); I used to sleep without any worries. What’s there inside my heart except You, Mother? No one could make me understand this. If You’re not with me, then the world seems lonely. You used to shower me with so much love. Today also, when I strike a tune, I remember You. Today also, when my eyes brim with tears. I remember You
