chhoomantar
choomantar

disappear..
disappear...

Choo mantar ho aaja chal guum ho jaayen
Choo mantar ho khud se hi khud kho jaayen
Choo mantar ho nazron mein hum na aayen
Dhoondhe jahan
humbhi na jaanen hum hain kahan
choo le zameen se wo aasmaan
chal lo re lo re chalo re o re

disappear, let's get lost,
disappear, let's get lost from our own selves,
disappear, let's not appear to eyes,
let the world be looking for us,
let us also not know where we are,
let's go.. move..

o baby o baby
o baby o baby...

Are you ready for this
Are you ready for this..

thodi si yaari yaara raahon se nibha le
apne pe bhi to kabhi apni chala le
hum chalen kahin, aawara ho kar naapen zameen
hum dhoondhe kahin, kuch aisa jo khoya hi nahi..

o friend, live your friendship a bit with paths too,
sometime do what you think for yourself too,
let's go, become loafers and measure the earth (just roam around),
let's find something that was never lost..

Chhoo mantar ho aaja chal gum ho jaayen
Chhoo mantar ho khud se hi khud kho jaayen
Chhoo mantar ho nazron mein hum na aayen

Ho chhoo mantar..
Ho chhoo mantar..

Palkon ki daali pe jo sapne lage hain,
khwahishon ki garmi se wo pakne lage hain
hmmm.. ruko zara, dekhen to kya hai ye maajra
hmmm... sabhi tarah khwahishon se hai ye dil bhara..

The dreams that are there on the branches of eyelids,
they are getting ripe due to the heat of wishes,
hmm, wait a moment, let's see what this story is..
hmm, this heart is full of wishes in all the ways

Chhoo mantar ho aaja chal guum ho jaayen
Chhoo mantar ho khud se hi khud kho jaayen
Chhoo mantar ho nazron mein hum na aayen

Dhoondhe jahan
hum bhi na jaanen hum hain kahan
choo le zameen se wo aasmaan
chal lo re lo re chal lo re o re..

Chhoo mantar... Chhooomantar....
