ek pyasa tujhe maikhana diye jata hai
jate jate bhi ye nazrana diye jata hai
baazi kisi ne pyar ki jeeti ya haar di
baazi kisi ne pyar ki jeeti ya haar di
jaise guzar saki ye shabe gam guzaar di
baazi kisi ne pyar ki jeeti ya haar di

sahil karega yaad usi namurad ko
sahil karega yaad usi namurad ko
haye kashti khushi se jisne bhanwar me utar di
jaise guzar saki ye shabe gam guzaar di
baazi kisi ne pyar ki jeeti ya haar di

chal pade safar ko to mud ke kya dekhna
chal pade safar ko to mud ke kya dekhna
haye duniya ka kya hain usne sada baar baar di
jaise guzar saki ye shabe gam guzaar di
baazi kisi ne pyar ki jeeti ya haar di
baazi kisi ne pyar ki jeeti ya haar di

A thirsty one, a tavern I bestow,
Even departing, this offering I show.
In love's game, a victory, a loss defined,
In love's game, a victory, a loss aligned,
As sorrow's nights, somehow, we left behind.
In love's game, a victory, a loss defined.

The shore will yearn for that one, ill-fated name,
The shore will yearn for that one, ill-fated claim,
Alas, a joyful ship, to whirlpool did he bind,
As sorrow's nights, somehow, we left behind.
In love's game, a victory, a loss defined.

Embarking on the journey, why look back then?
Embarking on the journey, why look back then?
Alas, the world's refrain, a constant, harsh design,
As sorrow's nights, somehow, we left behind.
In love's game, a victory, a loss defined,
In love's game, a victory, a loss aligned.
