jab se ham tum, bahaaro me,
ho baithe gum, nazaaro me
jaise ye zindagi,
jaagi aankho ka khawab hai

jab se ham tum, bahaaro me,
ho baithe gum, nazaaro me
jaise ye zindagi,
jaagi aankho ka khawab hai

hotho pe pyar ki, mithi si ragini
chehre pe aarzu ki dhimi-dhimi roshni
meri dhadakan, teri baate
tere jalave, meri aankhe
jaise ye roshani, jaagi aankho kaa kvaab hai

jo nainaa mod ke, do nainaa jod de
jo itna shokh hai vo sharmana bhi chhod de
ye shokhi si nigaaho ki
ye chori si adaao ki
jaise ye dillagi, jaagi aankho kaa kvaab hai

Since we, entwined, in springs did stray, lost to sight, in every way,
As if this life, a dream that wakes the eye.
We were to meet, on pathways of the heart,
Becoming tales, for those who played a part,
For those who yearned with all their soul.
Tales were, of a certain day, lovers of a certain day,
As if this melody, a dream that wakes the eye.

In love's own name, a goblet overflows,
A gentle, intoxicating, damp evening glows,
A damp, embracing evening.
My dreams, your paths, your...? My arms,
As if this ecstasy, a dream that wakes the eye.
Since we, entwined, in springs did stray, lost to sight, in every way,
As if this life, a dream the thirsty eye desires.

On lips of love, a sweet melody rings,
On faces, desire's soft light it brings,
My heartbeat, your words, your radiance, my eyes,
As if this light, a dream that wakes the eye.
Those eyes that turn, and bind two souls as one,
So bold of heart, forsaking shy, withdrawn,
This mischief of the gaze, this stealing of the ways,
As if this dalliance, a dream that wakes the eye.
