janewale o mere pyar teri khushi hai meri bahar
aansu mere yaad rahe kar lungi main intzar
ho janewale o mere pyar

rangi ajanta ki ranginiyo se tu chahe dil ko lagana
yun churake dilkash najaro me rahkar tum chahe sapne sajana
benoor ki najami wadiyo me tum chahe hasti mitana
apni kala se jhuka dena dunia
lekin lekin mere dil ke karar
aansu mere yaad rahe kar lungi main intzar
ho janewale o mere pyar

din ware ke dilruba mandiro me tum chahe raaten jagana
sache ki mastana gehraiyon me mast hokar doob jana
tajmahal ki madhur chandani me tum chahe jeewan bitana
taroon se uncha ho naam tumhara
lekin lekin sunlo itni pukar
aansu mere yaad rahe kar lungi mai intzar
ho janewale ho mere pyar

My love, departing, your joy is my spring,
Remember my tears, in waiting I'll sing.
Oh, my love, departing.

From Ajanta's hues, your heart you may paint,
In wine's sweet visions, your dreams you may taint.
In soulless valleys, your laughter restrain,
With your art, the world you may gain.
But listen, my heart's deep plea,
Remember my tears, in waiting for thee.
Oh, my love, departing.

In temples of day, nights you may keep,
In truth's deep madness, your soul you may steep.
In Taj's soft moonlight, your life you may weave,
Your name among stars, you may believe.
But hear now, this whisper so deep,
Remember my tears, in waiting I'll weep.
Oh, my love, departing.
