Patta Patta Boota Boota

"Patta Patta, Boota Boota, haal hamaara jaane hai

Jaane na jaane gul hin na jaane, baagh to saara jaane hai"

 

Reminds me of the opening lines of a Ghazal (Urdu poetry/song) by Mir Taqi Mir (1722-1808) of Delhi. Roughly translated:

 

Each and every leaf and plant my plight doth know;

The rose alone knows not what all the garden knows.
