bairin ban gai nindiya ho
bairin ban gai nindiya ho
koi jaye bole rasiya se
koi jaye bole rasiya se
na lage ankhiya mor
bairin ho gai nindiya ho

bin nindiya sapna nahi aaye
bin nindiya sapna nahi aaye
bin sapne sajan nahi aaye
bin sapne sajan nahi aaye
nagin ho gai raatiya ho
nagin ho gai raatiya ho
na lage ankhiya mor
bairin ho gai nindiya ho

jin nain me rakho inko

na jane bhagwan kahu kinko
na jano ye baatiyan ho
na jano ye baatiyan ho
na lage ankhiya mor
bairin ho gai nindiya ho

Sleep, a foe now, has become,
Sleep, a foe now has become,
Go, someone, speak to my love,
Go, someone, speak to my love,
My eyes find no rest.
Sleep, a foe now, has become.

Without sleep, no dreams arrive,
Without sleep, no dreams arrive,
Without dreams, my beloved won't appear,
Without dreams, my beloved won't appear,
The night, a serpent, it seems,
My eyes find no rest.
Sleep, a foe now, has become.

In whose eyes to keep them,
In whose eyes to keep them,
God only knows, to whom I say,
God only knows, to whom I say,
These words, unknown to me,
These words, unknown to me,
My eyes find no rest.
Sleep, a foe now, has become.
