apne khayaalo ko samajha dijiye
kyon raato ko neend churane aate hain
churane aate hain, apne khayaalo ko samajha dijiye
kyon raato ko neend churane aate hain
churane aate hain

aadhi aadhi rat talak aadhi aadhi raat talak
ham taare ginate rahate hain
aap hame sapano me aakar aap hame sapano me aakar
aisi bate karte hain bate karte hain
jinko sunate hi dil ke araman
sharmili dulhan ki tarah sharmate hain kyun sharmate hain
apne khayaalo ko samajha dijiye
kyon raato ko neend churane aate hain
churane aate hain

dekho ji anajan gharo me dekho ji anajan gharo me
yu bas jana thik nahee
kisi ke dil me chori chori kisi ke dil me chori chori
pyar jagana thik nahi, pyar jagana thik nahi
aankhon aankhon me jadu karake ho
aap hamin se hamako chhine jate hain
chhine jate hain
apne khayaalo ko samajha dijiye
kyon raato ko neend churaiane aate hain
churaiane aate hain

Tell your thoughts, I implore,
Why do they steal sleep from the night?
They come to steal, tell your thoughts,
Why do they steal sleep from the night?
They come to steal.

Through half the night,
We count the stars,
And you appear in dreams,
You come in dreams,
And speak such words,
Such words you speak,
That hearing them, the heart's desires
Blush like a shy bride, why do they blush?
Tell your thoughts, I implore,
Why do they steal sleep from the night?
They come to steal.

See, to dwell unbidden,
See, in unknown homes,
Is not right,
To steal into a heart,
To secretly awaken love, is not right,
To awaken love, it is not right,
Casting spells in our eyes,
You steal us from ourselves,
You steal us away,
Tell your thoughts, I implore,
Why do they steal sleep from the night?
They come to steal.
