kab darshan doge saanwre
kab darshan doge saanwre
mere naina bhail baabwre baabwre
kab darshan doge saanwre
kab darshan doge saanwre

kab banje gi teri muraliya
kab chhanke gi meri payaliya
mere man ki likha do re kaliya
mai to aai hun shyam teri galiya
tujhe patiya likhon mna ki batiyan likhon
kar na du mai tera babre saanwre saanwre saanwre
kab darshan doge saanwre mere naina bhail baabwre

meri aankhiyon darsh ki piyasi
tum bin chhai man me udasi
tum to bai kanth ke wasi
tere charnon ki mai hun dasi
mere sapne pane sab sukde chane
teri kripya to ho sab saware saanwre saanwre
kab darshan doge saanwre kab darshan doge saanwre

When will you grace me, dark one, with your sight?
When will you grace me, dark one, with your light?
My eyes, they weep, a fevered, troubled plight.
When will you grace me, dark one, day and night?
When will you grace me, dark one, with your sight?

When will your flute sing out its sweet refrain?
When will my anklets dance in joyful rain?
Bloom in my heart, and ease this aching pain.
I come to you, along your sacred lane.
I send my words, a longing, whispered plea,
I make you mine, my dark one, wild and free.
When will you grace me, dark one, my eyes with thee?

My eyes are parched, a desert craving view,
Without you, shadows gather, dark and new.
You dwell within, the constant, ever true.
I am your servant, ever loving you.
My dreams are shattered, fragments on the breeze,
Your grace alone, can bring my heart to ease.
When will you grace me, dark one, with your light?
When will you grace me, dark one, day and night?
