Tumhee ho maataa

Tumhee ho maataa pitaa tumhee ho
Tumhee ho bandhu sakhaa tumhee ho

Tumhee ho saathee tumhee sahaare
Koee na apnaa sivaa tumhaare
Tumhee ho naiya tumhee khevaiyaa
Tumhee ho bandhu sakhaa tumhee ho

Jo khil sake naa vo phool ham hȧi
Tumhaare charnȯ kee dhool ham hȧi
Dayaa kee driṣhtee sadaa hee rakhnaa
Tumhee ho bandhu sakhaa tumhee ho

You are my Mother, my Father, you are my brother and you are my friend.

You are my companion as well as my support. There is none except you who can direct and guide my life always.

We are the flowers that can bloom by your grace only; we are the humble dust at your feet. Please look at us with kindness and mercy and bless us.

Main Chup Rahungi (1962); Lata Mangeshkar
