Sher of Meer Mehdi Majrooh
churā ke muTThī meñ dil ko chhupā.e baiThe haiñ
bahānā ye hai ki mehñdī lagā.e baiThe haiñ
my stolen heart in your palm you hide
with the excuse its henna you've applied
chura ke muTThi mein dil ko chhupae baiThe hain
bahana ye hai ki mehndi lagae baiThe hain
my stolen heart in your palm you hide
with the excuse its henna you've applied
