“Dekh Lena” is a tender romantic duet from the 2016 film Tum Bin 2. While the film’s soundtrack featured several hits, this song stands out for its soft, melodic composition and the sweet vocal chemistry between Arijit Singh and Tulsi Kumar.
The song is built on a series of poetic promises. The lyrics by Manoj Muntashir use nature as a backdrop—rain, clouds, and sunlight—to describe a love that is all-encompassing. Ankit Tiwari’s music provides a soothing, acoustic feel that highlights Arijit’s versatility in romantic ballads and Tulsi Kumar’s delicate playback style. It is a song about a love so intense that it borders on “madness” (paagal), promising to be there in every smile and every tear.

देख लेना (Hindi Lyrics):
मैं बारिश हो जाऊँगा
तुम बादल हो जाओगी
देख लेना, देख लेना
इतना तुमको चाहूँगा
तुम पागल हो जाओगी
देख लेना, देख लेना
कहता है सुन ये धूप किनारा
तेरा हुआ मैं सारा का सारा
देख लेना तेरे होठों पे हमेशा
मैं हँसता ही रहूँगा देख लेना
देख लेना भीगी जो तेरी आँखें
आँखों से मैं बहूँगा देख लेना
हम्म… दिल तो है हर सीने में
है प्यार लेकिन मुझमें
सबसे ज़्यादा देख लेना
अपनी लकीरों में मैं
लिख लूँगी खुद ही तुमको
है मेरा वादा देख लेना
कहता है सुन ये धूप किनारा
तेरा हुआ मैं सारा का सारा
देख लेना तेरे होठों पे हमेशा
मैं हँसता ही रहूँगा देख लेना।
Main baarish ho jaaunga Romanized Lyrics:
(Chorus – Arijit Singh)
Main baarish ho jaaunga
Tum baadal ho jaaogi
Dekh lena, dekh lena
Itna tumko chahunga
Tum paagal ho jaaogi
Dekh lena, dekh lena
(Bridge)
Kehta hai sun ye dhoop kinara
Tera hua main saara ka saara
Dekh lena tere hotho pe hamesa
Main hasta hi rahunga dekh lena
Dekh lena bheegi jo teri aankhe
Aankhon se main bahunga dekh lena
(Verse – Tulsi Kumar)
Humm… dil to hai har seene में
Hai pyar lekin mujh mein
Sab se jyada dekh lena
Apni lakeeron mein main
Likh lungi khud hi tumko
Hai mera vaada dekh lena
(Chorus/Outro)
Kehta hai sun ye dhoop kinara
Tera hua main saara ka saara
Dekh lena tere hotho pe hamesa
Main hasta hi rahunga dekh lena.
Notable Imagery:
- “Main baarish ho jaaunga, Tum baadal ho jaaogi”: This metaphor beautifully illustrates the idea of two people completing each other—the cloud carrying the rain, and the rain bringing the cloud’s purpose to life.
- “Hotho pe… hasta rahunga / Aankhon se… bahunga”: A poignant vow to be the source of the beloved’s joy and the companion in their sorrow.
