Mile sur mera tumharaa, Thoo sur bane hamaraa.... sur kee nadhiyaan
har disha se behkee saagar mein milee. Baadalon ka roop leiker
bharse halke halke... Mile sur mera tumharaa.. thoo... sur bane
hamaara.. Mile sur mera tumhara...
Chaain taraj tahin nyay taraj
ek but baniye saayen taraj
Tera sur mile mere sur de naal
milke bane ek nava surtaal
Mile sur mera tumharaa....tho sur bane hamaara..
Mohnja sur tohi desa pyara mile jadein geet ashaanjo madhur tarano
bane tadein
Sur ka dariya bahte saagar me mile badlaan da roop leike barasan
holle haule
Isaindhal namm iruvarin suramum namadhakum.. Dhisai veru aanalum
aazi ser aarugal Mugilai mazaiyai pozivadu pol isai ...Namm
isssaiiii.... Thik thakida thathikakidA....thaka thimi thaka junu
Nanna dhwanige ninna dhwani-ya, seridante namma dhwaniya..
Naa swaramu nee swaramu sangammamai, mana swaram ga avatarinchey
Ninde swaramum ningalude swaramum otthucheiyum Namudeya swaramai....

Tomaar shoor moder shoor srishti koroor koi ekshoor[2]...
Sriishti karoon woi katha
Toma mora swarer milan srishti kare chalbochatano
male sur jo taro maro, bane aapno sur niralo
majhya tumchya julta tara madhur suranchya barasti dhara

Sur ki nadiya har disha se behke saagar mein mile...
Baadlo ka roop leke barse halke halke..
Oh...Mile sur mera tumhara tho....sur bane hamara...
Mile Sur mera tumhara
tho sur bane hamara tho sur bane hamara
tho sur bane hamara

Five for Fighting..
---------------------------------

I can’t stand to fly,
I’m not that naive,
I’m just out to find,
The better part of me

I’m more than a bird,
I’m more than a plane,
I’m more than some pretty face beside a train,
And it’s not easy…to be me

I wish that I could cry,
Fall upon my knees,
Find a way to lie,
About a home I’ll never see

It may sound absurd,
but don’t be naive,
Even hero’s have the right to bleed,
I may be disturbed,
but won’t you concede,
Even hero’s have the right to dream,
And it’s not easy…to be me

Up, up and away… away from me,
But it’s all right,
You can all sleep sound tonight,
I’m not crazy…or anything

I can’t stand to fly,
I’m not that naive,
Men weren’t meant to ride,
with clouds between their knees

I’m only a man,
In a silly red sheet,
Digging for kryptonite on this one way street,
Only a man, in a funny red sheet,
Looking for special things, inside of me…inside of me
Yeah inside of me… inside of me… inside of me
I’m only a man, in a funny red sheet,
Only a man looking for a dream.
I’m only a man in a funny red sheet,
It’s not easy, ooh ooh ooh,
It’s not easy…to be…....... me
