Chhoti Si Chiraiya Lyrics – Kailash Kher | Mimi

Chhoti Si Chiraiya Song Description

This song is "Chhoti Si Chiraiya" (छोटी सी चिरैया), taken from the film Mimi. The film features Kriti Sanon, Pankaj Tripathi, Evelyn Edwards, and Sai Tamhankar in acting roles. This song has been sung by Kailash Kher in his melodious voice, while the music is given by A.R. Rahman and the lyrics are written by Amitabh Bhattacharya. This song has been released under the Sony Music label.

The song begins with a little bird flying away towards a village — which serves as a symbol of childhood or the departure of a beloved relationship. Lines like "Rah gaya daana, rah gaya paani, sooni bhai amwa ki chhaav" (The grain remained, the water remained, the shade of the mango tree turned empty) show that after the bird's departure, everything starts feeling empty. In lines like "Ajab niraali moh ki maya" (Strange and unique is the illusion of love) and "Nain samandar saat bhare par" (Eyes filled like seven oceans) lies the pain of love and separation hidden. In the final part, "De vidaai mein tujhe kya keemti saamaan" (What precious thing should I give you at farewell) and "Bharke apni chonch mein leja hamre praan" (Fill your beak and take away my life) show that at the time of farewell, a person becomes ready to give away everything. This song touches emotions with great simplicity, and Kailash Kher's voice makes it even deeper.
