hum se bhaga na karo dur gijano ki tarah
hum se bhaga na karo dur gijano ki tarah
hume chaha hain tumne chahne walo ki tarah
hum se bhaga na karo dur

khud b khud neend si aankhon mein ghuli jati hain
khud b khud neend si aankhon mein ghuli jati hain
mahaki mahaki hai shabe gham tere baalo ki tarah
mahaki mahaki hai shabe gham tere baalo ki tarah
hum se bhaga na karo dur

aur kya isse jyada koi narami dhar dun
aur kya isse jyada koi narami dhar dun
dil ke zakhmon ko chhua hain tere galon ki tarah
dil ke zakhmon ko chhua hain tere galon ki tarah
hum se bhaga na karo dur

teri zulfen teri aankhe tere abaru tere lab
teri zulfen teri aankhe tere abaru tere lab
ab bhi mashur hain duniya mein misalon ki tarah
ab bhi mashur hain duniya mein misalon ki tarah
hum se bhaga na karo dur

humse mayus na hoye shabe dohrake abhi
humse mayus na hoye shabe dohrake abhi
dil mein kuch dard chamkate hai ujalon ki tarah
dil mein kuch dard chamkate hai ujalon ki tarah
hum se bhaga na karo dur gijano ki tarah
hume chaha hain tumne chahne walo ki tarah
hum se bhaga na karo dur

Do not flee from me, like phantoms in the night,
Do not flee from me, like phantoms in the night,
For you I’ve longed, as lovers long in light.
Do not flee from me.

Sleep, unbidden, floods your eyes, so deep,
Sleep, unbidden, floods your eyes, so deep,
And the night of sorrow, fragrant, like your hair,
The night of sorrow, fragrant, like your hair,
Do not flee from me.

What gentleness can I yet further plead?
What gentleness can I yet further plead?
My heart's wounds touched by your cheeks, indeed,
My heart's wounds touched by your cheeks, indeed,
Do not flee from me.

Your tresses, eyes, your brows, your lips so fine,
Your tresses, eyes, your brows, your lips so fine,
Are still renowned, held up as signs divine,
Are still renowned, held up as signs divine,
Do not flee from me.

Do not despair, repeat the night anew,
Do not despair, repeat the night anew,
Within my heart, some pains gleam through,
Within my heart, some pains gleam through,
Do not flee from me, like phantoms in the night,
For you I’ve longed, as lovers long in light.
Do not flee from me.
