chander chupa suraj chupa bhuja hai man ka dip
jyoti bin sune nain, jyun moti bin sip
dipak jalao jyoti jagao
dipak jalao jyoti jagao man me andhera hai, dipak jalao
are laal gao rab ko manao, are laal gao rab ko manao
deekhado ne ghera hai dipak jalao, dipak jalao
chaya hai chahu aur ghan andkar
chaya hai chahu aur ghan andkar
lahraye jaise ke sagar aapar
lahraye jaise ke sagar aapar koi dubte dil ko mere bachao
dipak jalao jyoti jagao man me andhera hai, dipak jalao

ambar pe bikhara taro ka jaal, ambar pe bikhara taro ka jaal
yaha aas ki bhuj gayi har masal
yaha aas ki bhuj gayi har masal mere chand suraj kaha hai bhulao
dipak jalao jyoti jagao man me andhera hai, dipak jalao

dil me do rah rah ke kirne ke phul
dil me do rah rah ke kirne ke phul
bitti baharo ko tum jao bhul
bitti baharo ko tum jao bhul mere man ki agni ko ab mat bhujao
dipak jalao jyoti jagao man me andhera hai dipak jalao
dipak jalao, dipak jalao, dipak jalao, dipak jalao, dipak jalao

The moon hides, the sun conceals, a lamp within the mind's embrace,
Eyes, bereft of light, are deaf, like pearls lost from the shell's space.
Kindle the lamp, awaken the light,
Kindle the lamp, awaken the light, darkness resides within,
Kindle the lamp.

Oh, sing to the Beloved, appease the Lord,
Oh, sing to the Beloved, appease the Lord,
The shadows encircle, kindle the lamp,
The shadows encircle, kindle the lamp,
Darkness, a dense and encompassing shroud,
Darkness, a dense and encompassing shroud,
Undulates like a boundless ocean's roar,
Undulates like a boundless ocean's roar,
Save my sinking heart from the shore,
Kindle the lamp, awaken the light,
Darkness resides within, kindle the lamp.

Across the heavens, a web of stars unfurls,
Across the heavens, a web of stars unfurls,
Here, every hope's flame has been curled,
Here, every hope's flame has been curled,
Where are my moon and sun?
Kindle the lamp, awaken the light,
Darkness resides within, kindle the lamp.

Within the heart, let rays of light bloom,
Within the heart, let rays of light bloom,
Forget the springs that have lost their perfume,
Forget the springs that have lost their perfume,
Do not extinguish the fire of my soul,
Kindle the lamp, awaken the light,
Darkness resides within, kindle the lamp.
Kindle the lamp, kindle the lamp, kindle the lamp,
Kindle the lamp, kindle the lamp.
