Khil khil ke hans di kali kali, par khila nahee mera jiya
Meri itni kahaani, meri hai yeh pareshaani
Kabhi aaye, koi aaye, koi bole maine dil diya
Dhund rahi hu mai aisa deewana, (thoda sa pagla, thoda siyaana -2)
Lukchup ke mai ghumi gali gali, kahee mila nahee mera piya
Khil khil ke hans di kali kali, par khila nahee mera jiya
Kabhi aaye, koi aaye, koi bole maine dil diya
Dhund rahi hu mai aisa deewana, (thoda sa pagla, thoda siyaana -2)
Ha mujhse kare woh aake pyaari pyaari baate
Chehre ko chaand keh de, julfon ko raate
Milne woh jo aaye, bole haaye meri jaana
Dil me tadapte hai tere hi armaan
Mai tera deewana hu, tu jo maange jaan bhi du - (2)
Bigdu toh karde shuru haklaana, (thoda sa pagla, thoda siyaana -2)
Lukchup ke mai ghumi gali gali, kahee mila nahee mera piya
Khil khil ke hans di kali kali, par khila nahee mera jiya
Meri itni kahaani, meri hai yeh pareshaani
Kabhi aaye, koi aaye, koi bole maine dil diya
Dhund rahi hu mai aisa deewana, (thoda sa pagla, thoda siyaana -2)
Ha kabhi laake de woh guthka mujhe bhopal ka
Kabhi leke aaye lehnga woh nainitaal ka
Bareli woh jaaye toh woh laaye surmeidaani
Lucknow se le aaye kurta kaamdaani
Banaras agar jaaye, sari leke hi aaye - (2)
Puchhe dehli se hai kya mangwaana, (thoda sa pagla, thoda siyaana -2)
Lukchup ke mai ghumi gali gali, kahee mila nahee mera piya
Khil khil ke hans di kali kali, par khila nahee mera jiya
Meri itni kahaani, meri hai yeh pareshaani
Kabhi aaye, koi aaye, koi bole maine dil diya
Dhund rahi hu mai aisa deewana, (thoda sa pagla, thoda siyaana -2)
The lyrics of Thodasa Pagla, sung by Asha Bhosle, express the longing of a woman for her lover. She roams the streets alone, hoping to find her lover, but to no avail. The blooming flowers and laughing buds around her mock her, as they cannot satisfy the yearning of her heart. She narrates her endless tale of longing and anguish but no one listens. She searches for a lover as crazy and wise as she is, to reciprocate her feelings. She describes how her lover talks to her sweetly, calls her a moon-faced beauty and her hair a moonlit night, fulfilling her desires. She is so madly in love with him that she would do anything to fulfill his wishes, even if it means becoming little crazy or wise.
The lyrics intertwine with cultural nuances of India, as the mention of different cities and their specialties in clothing, makeup or accessories. The song is both romantic and whimsical, creating a mood of melancholy but also light-heartedness. It speaks of the immense power of love and how it can engulf one’s existence.
