kahi karti hogi wo mera intzar, jiski tamnna me firta hu bekarar
kahi karti hogi wo mera intzar, jiski tamnna me firta hu bekarar

dur julfo ki chawo se, kahta hu ye hawao se
usi khud ki rajao ke, afasane hajar
wo jo baaho me machal jati, hsra thi nikal jati
meri dunia badal jati, mil jata karar
kahi karti hogi wo mera intzar, jiski tamnna me firta hu bekarar

armaa hai koi paas aaye, in hatho me wo hath aaye
phir khawabo ki ghata chhaaye, barasaye khumaar
phir unhi din rato pe, matwali din rato pe
ulfat bharai bato pe, hum hote nisar
kahi karti hogi wo mera intzar, jiski tamnna me firta hu bekarar

Perhaps she waits, the one I crave,
For whom this restless heart does rave.
Perhaps she waits, the one I crave,
For whom this restless heart does rave.

In shadows spun from tresses far,
I whisper to the winds that are,
Of her, whose grace, a thousand tales impart.
If held, within those arms of bliss,
My longing, it would gently kiss
The world, and bring a settled heart.
Perhaps she waits, the one I crave,
For whom this restless heart does rave.

My soul desires her nearness near,
Her hand within my hand to hold so dear,
Then dreams descend, a hazy, fragrant tear.
On those lost nights, those meetings bold,
On whispered words of love, untold,
Our very beings would be here.
Perhaps she waits, the one I crave,
For whom this restless heart does rave.
