ai dil-e-awaara chal
ai dil-e-awaara chal
phir vahi dubaaraa chal
yaar ne didaar ka vada kiyaa hai
o o o ai dil-e-avaaraa chal
phir vahi dubaaraa chal
yaar ne didaar ka vaada kiyaa hai
o o o ai dil-e-avaaraa chal

vo unki betaabi vo unkaa chalana chhamse
anchal thaamaa to hanske kahaa phir milane ko hamase
unse hamse sun ai dil pyaar ka ikaraar aankho me hua hai
o o ai dil-e-avaaraa chal

khatti ho ya mithi ab un aankho se pinaa
jite hai chaahat vaale binaa chaahat ke kya jinaa
chalte phirte sun ai dil
chaah me ab aah bharne ka mazaa hai
o o o ai dil-e-avaaraa chal

chamkaa hai ik mukhdaa kuchh zulfe hai lahraayi
din phir gaye apne din ke gai rato ki tanhaai
chamkaa hai ik mukhdaa kuchh zulfe hai lahraayi
din phir gaye apne din ke gai rato ki tanhaai
jaha vo vaha ham sun ai dil chain se
bechain tu kyu ho raha hai
o o o ai dil-e-avaaraa chal
phir vahi dubaaraa chal
yaar ne didaar ka vaada kiyaa hai
o o ai dil-e-avaaraa chal

Wandering heart, now go,
Wandering heart, now go,
Return to that place, you know,
Where the Beloved promised to show.
Oh, oh, wandering heart, now go,
Return to that place, you know,
Where the Beloved promised to show.
Oh, oh, wandering heart, now go.

Their restlessness, their dancing steps, light,
They held my veil, and smiled, bidding me goodnight,
From them, from me, listen, heart, love's vow,
Bloomed in the eyes, now.
Oh, oh, wandering heart, now go.

Bitter or sweet, drink from those eyes,
Lovers live, without love, how one dies?
Walking, turning, listen, heart,
In longing, now, to sigh, is the art.
Oh, oh, wandering heart, now go.

A face has bloomed, locks softly sway,
Days have turned, night's solitude, slipped away,
A face has bloomed, locks softly sway,
Days have turned, night's solitude, slipped away,
Where they are, there we are, listen, heart, at peace,
Why this unrest, why this release?
Oh, oh, wandering heart, now go,
Return to that place, you know,
Where the Beloved promised to show.
Oh, oh, wandering heart, now go.
