koyaliya jab gaati hai paayaliya chhanakaati hai
sard hava jab aati hai suyi chubha ke jaati hai
nadiya ke paani ne chhuwa kaise bataayuun kya huwa
koyaliya jab gaati

mitha mitha dard hai mithi mithi pyaas hai
chadhati javaani ka ehasaas hai
baahon mein samet luun mahaki bahaar ko
dil kahe rok luun nadiya ki dhaar ko
dolo tum balakhaao bin saavan laharaao
nadiya ke paani ne

thandi thandi aag hai bhiga bhiga ang hai
dasein tanhaayiyaan koyi nahin sang hai
saansein hai dhuwan jalata hai man mera
rah rah ke ghabaraayuun jal mein na jal jaayuun
nadiya ke paani ne
