aye chanda dena tu gawahi
aye chanda dena tu gawahi
dil humne diya hai tere samne
dil humne diya hai tere samne
aye chanda dena tu gawahi
aye chanda dena tu gawahi

gun gunane lagi aaj tanhayiya
baj rahi hai kahi dur sahnayiya
gun gunane lagi aaj tanhayiya
baj rahi hai kahi dur sahnayiya
aye sitaro hanso aye najaro hanso
geet chheda hai jati huyi sham ne
dil humne diya hai tere samne
dil humne diya hai tere samne
aye chanda dena tu gawahi
aye chanda dena tu gawahi

rat ke hath me chand ka phul hai
ye koi khavab hai ya koi bhul hai
rat ke hath me chand ka phul hai
ye koi khavab hai ya koi bhul hai
dil ko mahka diya humko bahka diya
teri aankho ki rangin paygam ne
dil humne diya hai tere samne
dil humne diya hai tere samne
aye chanda dena tu gawahi
aye chanda dena tu gawahi

Oh, moon, bear witness to this plea,
Oh, moon, bear witness, silently.
Before you, our heart, a gift we give,
Before you, our heart, now meant to live.
Oh, moon, bear witness to this plea,
Oh, moon, bear witness, silently.

The silences now hum a mournful tune,
Far off, the oboes weep beneath the moon.
The silences now hum a mournful tune,
Far off, the oboes weep beneath the moon.
Stars, now laugh! Landscapes, in joy, rejoice!
The passing evening sings its tender voice,
Before you, our heart, a gift we give,
Before you, our heart, now meant to live.
Oh, moon, bear witness to this plea,
Oh, moon, bear witness, silently.

In night's dark hand, a moon-flower bright,
Is this a dream, or just a fading light?
In night's dark hand, a moon-flower bright,
Is this a dream, or just a fading light?
The heart, it blooms, the soul begins to stray,
Lost in the hues your very eyes convey,
Before you, our heart, a gift we give,
Before you, our heart, now meant to live.
Oh, moon, bear witness to this plea,
Oh, moon, bear witness, silently.
