Lyrics of Maanaye Ni Maanaye Main Ik Shikraa Yaar Banaayaa - माये नि माये
maaye ni maaye
main ik shikra yar banaya
ohade sir te kalagi
te ohade pairi jhanjhar
oh chog chugeda aaya
ik ohade rup di dhup dhikheri
ho duja mehakaan daa dhirhaya
tijaa ohada rang gulabi
oh kise gori maa da jaya
ishqe daa ik palag navari
ve asaan chaananiyaan vich dahya
tan di chaadar ho gayi maidi
ho us pair jaan palage paya
dukhan mere nainan de kohye
te vich had hajuan da aaya
saari raat gayi vich sochaan
ho us ai ki zulm kamaya
subah-savere lai ni vatana
ve asan mal-mal os nahavaya
dehi de vicho nikalan chinagan
ni sada hatth gaya kumhalaya
churi kuttan taan oh khaaoda naahi
ve asaan dil daa maas khavaayaa
ik udaari aisi maari
ik udaari aisi maari
oh mud vatani naa aaya, o maaye ni!
mai ik shikra yaar banaya
Poetic Translation - Lyrics of Maanaye Ni Maanaye Main Ik Shikraa Yaar Banaayaa
My mother, O my mother,
I made a falcon my friend,
A crest upon his head,
And anklets upon his feet,
He came to feed.
The sun of his beauty, a dazzling light,
And a second scent of fragrance,
A third, his blush of rose,
Born of a fair mother's womb.
A bed of love, a woven dream,
We bathed it in moonlight,
My body's shroud, soiled with longing,
As he laid his feet upon it.
The wells of my eyes, a river of pain,
And tears flowed, a cascade,
The whole night lost in thought,
What cruelty did he commit?
Come morning, I called him to bathe,
I washed him gently,
Sparks leapt from my body,
And my hand grew numb.
Though I crushed the bread, he would not eat,
I fed him the flesh of my heart,
He took a flight so high,
He took a flight so high,
He never returned, O mother,
I made a falcon my friend.
