Clink, clink, clink, the bangles sing,
Clink, clink, clink, a whispered thing.
Clink, clink, bangles chime and fade,
Clink, clink, a love parade.
Clink, clink, clink, the bangles sing,
A foolish heart, its bindings cling.
Clink, clink, clink, the bangles chime,
The moonlight mocks, your memory calls,
Come back, my love, the twilight falls.
Since you departed, sleep eludes,
My heart weeps often, though my eye intrudes
With sorrow deep, a yearning's sting,
And on it all, the world does sing
Clink, clink, the bangles chime and fade,
A foolish heart, its bindings made.
Your name, I trace on palms of hand,
Your words, your thoughts, across the land.
The monsoon comes, yet you're not here,
Beneath the peepal, shadows clear.
The village gossips, mocking, true,
And on it all, the world pursues
Clink, clink, the bangles chime and fade,
Clink, clink, a love parade.
Clink, clink, clink, the bangles sing,
Perched on the roof, I send a paper dove,
Watching, waiting, fueled by fading love.
My eyes are weary, but my heart's alight,
A flicker of hope, against the night.
With every breath, a silent plea,
When memories of you haunt me.
Clink, clink, the bangles chime and fade,
Clink, clink, a love parade.
Clink, clink, clink, the bangles sing,
Clink, clink, clink,
