subah kaa vaqt huaa aai gulashan me sabaa
chhid gayaa saaj-e-chaman gunji aavaaz-e-chaman
naalaa bulbul ne kiyaa khul gayaa raaz-e-chaman
phul muskaraane lage ishq farmaane lage
aah-e-bulbul se magar faili gulshan me khabar
ishq badnaam huaa chal gayaa sabko pataa
baagbaan aa hi gayaa pyaar ki dene sadaa
phul shaakho se chune naale bulbul ke sune
haar kuchh gunth lie hanste dil tod die
ashk shabnam ke bahe aur khaamosh rahe
haar phulo ke jo gulshan se vo lekar nikla
apne phulo se machalti hui bulbul ne kahaa
kyaa, jaate-jaate ik nazar bhar dekh lo dekh lo
jaate-jaate ik nazar bhar dekh lo dekh lo
jaate-jaate ik nazar bhar dekh lo dekh lo
jaate-jaate ik nazar bhar dekh lo dekh lo
jaate-jaate ik nazar bhar dekh lo dekh lo
jaate-jaate ik nazar bhar dekh lo dekh lo

shamaa ne jalve lutaae jo shabistaano me
shauq jal jaane kaa paidaa huaa parvaano me
shamaa ne jalve lutaae jo shabistaano me
shauq jal jaane kaa paidaa huaa parvaano me
sar hatheli pe lie ishq ke jaanbaaz chale
aag sino me chhupaae hue hamraaz chale
aag sino me chhupaae hue hamraaz chale
shamaa ne dekhaa jo aate hue parvaano ko
boli bithlaaun kahaan ishq ke mehmano ko
kaun samjhaega in chaak-garebaano ko
sarphiraa kahti hai duniyaa mere divaano ko
sarphiraa kahti hai duniyaa mere divaano ko
aise divaane ki marne ki kasam khaae hue
ishq ki aag me jalne ke lie aae hue
ishq ki aag me jalne ke lie aae hue

munh phiraaungi to mahfil se nikal jaaenge
inko sine se lagaaungi to jal jaaenge
bole parvaane hame ishq me jal jaane de
jaan ke saath ye armaan nikal jaane de
kah ke shauk me divaane pe divaanaa giraa
ishq ki aag me parvaane pe parvaana giraa
ishq ki aag me parvaane pe parvaana giraa
ahal-e-dil jalvaa-e-jana pe fidaa hone lage
shamaa ki lau se gale mil ke judaa hone lage
ishq me dekh kar kurbaniya in divaano ki
shamaa ne itnaa kaha laash pe parvaano ki
kyaa, jaate-jaate ik nazar bhar dekh lo dekh lo
jaate-jaate ik nazar bhar dekh lo dekh lo
jaate-jaate ik nazar bhar dekh lo dekh lo
jaate-jaate ik nazar bhar dekh lo dekh lo
jaate-jaate ik nazar bhar dekh lo dekh lo
jaate-jaate ik nazar bhar dekh lo dekh lo

Before you depart, just one glance, behold,
Before you depart, just one glance, behold,
Before you depart, just one glance, behold,
Before you depart, just one glance, behold,
Before you depart, just one glance, behold,
Before you depart, just one glance, behold,
Before you depart, just one glance, behold.

As dawn unfurled, the breeze kissed the rose,
The garden’s strings began to softly play,
Echoes of the garden filled the air.
The nightingale’s lament, a secret told,
The garden’s mystery now laid bare.
Flowers began to smile, love’s whisper flowed,
But from the nightingale’s sigh, a rumour grew,
Love was now defiled, the secret known.
The gardener arrived, love’s call he gave,
He plucked the blooms, the nightingale’s pain,
Wove a garland of their essence true,
And broke the laughing hearts.
The dew, like tears, did softly fall,
And silent lay.
From the garden, he then brought forth these garlands,
As the nightingale, her heart in turmoil, sang,
"Before you depart, just one glance, behold,
Before you depart, just one glance, behold,
Before you depart, just one glance, behold,
Before you depart, just one glance, behold,
Before you depart, just one glance, behold,
Before you depart, just one glance, behold.

When the candle unveiled its beauty in the night,
The moths felt a yearning, a desire to burn bright.
When the candle unveiled its beauty in the night,
The moths felt a yearning, a desire to burn bright.
With hearts in hand, the lovers did advance,
Secrets hidden, fire within their dance.
Secrets hidden, fire within their dance.
The candle beheld the moths as they came,
"Where shall I welcome these lovers of flame?
Who will soothe these hearts, torn by love's name?"
The world calls my lovers, all insane.
The world calls my lovers, all insane.
These lovers, they swear to their death,
Come to burn in love’s fiery breath.
Come to burn in love’s fiery breath.

"If I turn away, they will leave the feast,
If I hold them close, they will be released."
The moths then spoke, "Let us burn in love's grace,
Let this longing depart with our life's embrace."
In longing, one moth fell upon the other,
One moth fell upon another, in love's fire.
One moth fell upon another, in love's fire.
The hearts of the faithful, embraced the Beloved's light,
Kissed the candle’s flame, departing in night.
Seeing the sacrifices of these hearts,
The candle whispered, above the dead,
"Before you depart, just one glance, behold,
Before you depart, just one glance, behold,
Before you depart, just one glance, behold,
Before you depart, just one glance, behold,
Before you depart, just one glance, behold,
Before you depart, just one glance, behold."
