Original Lyrics

English Translation
|
| Koi khidki toh khuli, khuli, khuli |
A window has opened |
| Tabhi aisa lage dhali raat hai, raat hai, raat hai |
That's when you know that the night has ended |
| Dari dari dari, dabe, dabe, dabe |
Secretly and slowly |
| Pairon se woh chali kaanch ki ghaas pe, ghaas pe, ghaas pe |
She was walking bare feet on the dew covered grass |
| Kaali si dibbi mein hui woh qaid thi |
She was trapped in a black coloured box |
| Chanda ki maari humne gulel thi |
We threw the light of the moon on the box |
| Taaron ki chaabi se khuli safaid si |
Then with the key of the stars the box opened |
| Subah, subah, subah, subah |
And it was like a bright morning |
|
|
| Jugni, hey, udi, hey, naye naye par liye |
The firefly is flying with her new wings |
| O pinjra khol, O pinjra khol |
After escaping from the cage |
| Jugni, hey, udi, hey, dil mein ghar kiye |
The firefly has made a home in my heart |
| O pinjra khol, O pinjra khol |
After escaping from the cage |
|
|
| Rakh hausle, do na isse abhi |
Be hopeful and don't give her any advice |
| Falsafe jhoothe lage sabhi |
They all seem false to her |
| Ho gaye hai chaknachoor, chaknachoor |
They've all been crushed |
| Joh roshni chhalke yahan wahan |
The light is shining here and there |
| Odhe huye chal di leke kahan |
Covering yourself in it, where are you going |
| Huzoor hai khud ka noor, khud ka noor |
She herself has her own glow |
| Chaukhat pe maangi jiski muraad thi |
The one for whom she had prayed |
| Jiske liye woh itni udaas thi |
The one for whom she was so sad |
| Koi na jaane kitni woh khaas thi |
No one knows how special it was for her |
| Subah, subah, subah, subah |
That important morning |
|
|
| Jugni, hey, udi, hey, naye naye par liye |
The firefly is flying with her new wings |
| O pinjra khol, O pinjra khol |
After escaping from the cage |
| Jugni, hey, udi, hey, dil mein ghar kiye |
The firefly has made a home in my heart |
| O pinjra khol, O pinjra khol |
After escaping from the cage |
