chanda ki katori hai
main hoon tu hai noorie hai
chanda ki katori hai
main hoon tu hai noorie hai
raatein sataaye ye tujhe sone naa de

sapnon ke solah jhoole
main jhooloon tu bhi jhoole
sapnon ke solah jhoole
main jhooloon tu bhi jhoole
raate sataaye ye aisa hone naa de

soja re ke chidiya bhi chonch mein apni
neend ke tinke laayi hai
soja tere daddy ji ki aankh mein bhi ab
angdayi leke jhoole hain sapne
angdayi leke jhoole hain sapne

A silver bowl of moon, it seems,
Contains you, me, and radiant gleams.
A silver bowl of moon above,
Holds you, me, and celestial love.
Let not the night torment your soul,
And steal the sleep that makes you whole.

Sixteen swings of dreams we find,
I swing, and you, your heart aligned.
Sixteen swings of dreams we share,
I swing, and you, beyond compare.
Let not the night its shadows cast,
To make this precious moment last.

Sleep now, for little birds have flown,
Each carrying sleep's seed to be sown.
Sleep, for your father's weary eyes,
Now cradled with a sweet surprise.
The dreams within his gaze reside,
In slumber's gentle, flowing tide.
