hum tere sanam na hote
are hum tere sanam na hote
paudar banke tere galo ko sahlate sahlate
hum tere janeman na hote
are hum tere janeman na hote
kajal banke teri aankho pe so jate so jate

tere collar pe muflar banke lipat jate
tere kapdo pe parfyum banke chhidak jate
anguthi banke teri ungli me atak jate
teri zulfo me banke zu hum bhatak jate
agar is jaha me janam na lete

hum tere sanam na hote
are hum tere sanam na hote
paudar banke tere galo ko sahlate sahlate

tere kano me jhumke banke latak jate
tere hatho me mobile banke baz jate
tere nakhuno pe polish banke chitak jate
kapdo pe tere design banke tik jate
agar is jaha me janam na lete

hum tere janeman na hote
are hum tere janeman na hote
kajal banke teri aankho pe so jateso jate

If I were not your beloved,
Oh, if I were not your beloved,
I'd be powder, to caress your cheeks, ever and again.

If I were not your darling,
Oh, if I were not your darling,
I'd be kohl, to sleep upon your eyes, forever and again.

As a scarf, I'd cling to your collar,
As perfume, I'd spray upon your clothes,
As a ring, I'd be caught upon your finger,
As a louse, I'd wander in your tresses,
If I were not born into this world,
If I were not your beloved,
Oh, if I were not your beloved,
I'd be powder, to caress your cheeks, ever and again.

As earrings, I'd dangle in your ears,
As a phone, I'd vibrate in your hands,
As polish, I'd glisten on your nails,
As a design, I'd stay upon your clothes,
If I were not born into this world,
If I were not your beloved,
Oh, if I were not your beloved,
I'd be kohl, to sleep upon your eyes, forever and again.
