aankho me tum ho sanso me tum ho
tum ho meri jindagi
mere karib ho mera nasib ho
tum ho meri bandagi
ye pahla pyar hai wafa ka ikrar hai
tum ho meri har khushi o sanam o sanam

aise na apni reshmi julfe bikhrao
bechaini is dil ki na or badhao
o sharam se meri aankhe kyu jhuk jati hai
bate labo tak aake kyu ruk jati hai
yahi to izhar hai diwano ka khumar hai
tum ho meri bekhudi o sanam o sanam

teri mohabbat ne kya meri halat kar di
hal batau kaise tujhko bedardi
pyas teri chahat ki kyu badhti jaye
ik pal bhi ab mujhko kyu chain na aaye
isi me to karar hai fiza me bhi bahar hai
tum ho meri aashiki o sanam o sanam
aankho me tum ho sanso me tum ho
tum ho meri jindagi
mere karib ho mera nasib ho
tum ho meri bandagi
ye pahla pyar hai wafa ka ikrar hai
tum ho meri har khushi o sanam o sanam

In my eyes, you dwell, in my breath, you reside,
You are the essence of my life, my guide.
Near to me you are, my destined fate,
You are the core of my devotion, I state.
This is love's dawn, fidelity's vow,
You are my every joy, oh beloved, oh now.

Do not now, your silken tresses unfurl,
Do not heighten my heart's disquiet in this world.
Oh, why do my eyes with modesty lower,
Words at my lips' edge, falter and cower?
This is the declaration, the madman's delight,
You are my delirium, oh beloved, my light.

Your love has reshaped the landscape of me,
How can I tell you, cruel one, what I see?
The thirst for your longing, why does it grow?
Not a moment of peace, now, I know.
In this is the solace, spring in the air,
You are my passion, oh beloved, I swear.
In my eyes, you dwell, in my breath, you reside,
You are the essence of my life, my guide.
Near to me you are, my destined fate,
You are the core of my devotion, I state.
This is love's dawn, fidelity's vow,
You are my every joy, oh beloved, oh now.
