baat din ki nahin, ab raat se dar lagata hain
baat din ki nahin, ab raat se dar lagata hain
ghar hain kachcha mera
barsaat se dar lagata hain
baat din ki nahin, ab raat se dar lagata hain

tere tohfe ne to bas, khun ke aansu hi diye
tere tohfe ne to bas, khun ke aansu hi diye
zindagi ab tere, saugaat se dar lagata hain
baat din ki nahin, ab raat se dar lagata hain

pyaar ko chhod ke tum, aur koi baat karo
pyaar ko chhod ke tum, aur koi baat karo
ab mujhe pyaar ki, har baat se dar lagata hain
baat din ki nahin, ab raat se dar lagata hain

mere khatir kahin, badnam na wo ho jaaye
mere khatir kahin, badnam na wo ho jaaye
isliye uski mulakat se, dar lagata hain
baat din ki nahin, ab raat se dar lagata hain
ghar hain kachcha mera
barsaat se dar lagata hain
baat din ki nahin, ab raat se dar lagata hain
baat din ki nahin, ab raat se dar lagata hain

It is not the day, now the night that I fear,
It is not the day, now the night that I fear,
My home, of mud and straw,
The coming rain, I fear.
It is not the day, now the night that I fear.

Your gifts, they offered only tears of blood,
Your gifts, they offered only tears of blood,
Life itself, and all it brings,
I fear, your offering.
It is not the day, now the night that I fear.

Speak of something other, leave love aside,
Speak of something other, leave love aside,
Now, of love's every echo,
I fear, the tide.
It is not the day, now the night that I fear.

Lest for me, her name be stained and soiled,
Lest for me, her name be stained and soiled,
Therefore, of our meeting,
I fear, the void.
It is not the day, now the night that I fear,
My home, of mud and straw,
The coming rain, I fear.
It is not the day, now the night that I fear.
It is not the day, now the night that I fear.
