Dhaagena Tinak Dhin Lyrics – Metro… In Dino

Oh mast pawan sa
Like a carefree breeze
Kati patang saa
Like a drifting kite
Chhoda ise, yaar gaya
Left it behind, the friend is gone

Bata re battu, bada nikhattu
Tell me, my friend, he’s such a useless guy
Mujhe toh ye maar gaya
He’s the one who broke my heart

Hmm waadein bhula ke
Hmm, forgetting promises
Yaadein bhula ke
Forgetting all the memories
Josh mein hosh pighla
In passion, his sense just melted

Suni si dhoon sa
Like a dull old tune
Geelay saabun saa
Like slippery wet soap
Haathon se hai jo fisla
He slipped right through my hands

Fisla fisla phir se phir ye
He slipped again and again
Fisla fisla phir ye
Once more, he slipped away
Fisli fisli meri ye raatein
These slippery nights of mine
Fisley se ab mere din
Now even my days slip away

Dhaagena tinak dhin tinak dhin
Rhythmic sounds of my scattered heart
… (Repeated) …
Dhaagena tinak dhin
The beat of longing plays on

Ho khule gagan sa
Like the open sky
Thandi agan saa
Like a cold fire
Khele bina haar gaya
He lost without even playing

Ghumta lattu, bhaade ka tattu
A spinning top, a rented horse
Shekhiyaan baghar gaya
He left, empty of pride

Hmm waise toh jhand hai
Hmm, he’s truly a mess
Toh bhi ghamand hai
Still, he’s full of pride
Chhati phula ke nikla
He walks around puffing his chest

Dhundhein hai titli rang-birangi
He chases colorful butterflies
Rang-beranga titla
But all he catches is confusion

Tinka tinka armaan dil ka
Each desire is just a straw in my heart
Dil mein dhadke har din
Beating daily in my chest
Behkaa machla pighla phisla
It wandered, melted, slipped
Isko naa sukoon ishq bin
It finds no peace without love

Dhaagena tinak dhin tinak dhin
Rhythmic sounds of my scattered heart
… (Repeated) …
Dhaagena tinak dhin
The beat of longing plays on

Mann toh hai marzi ka maalik
The heart follows its own will
Mast maulaa
A free spirit
Jo seedhe raste pe chalna jaane naa
That knows not how to walk the straight path
Apne bharam ke hi pichhey-pichhey bhaage
Chasing only its own illusions
Mera hi hokar meri hi maane naa
Though it’s mine, it won’t listen to me

Fisla fisla phir se phir ye
It slipped again and again
… (Chorus Repeat) …

Dhaagena tinak dhin tinak dhin
The rhythm of my scattered soul plays on
… (Final Repeats) …
Dhaagena tinak dhin
Still the beat of longing echoes
