khoya khoya chanda khoye khoye tare
so gaye tu bhi so ja chand hamare
khoya khoya chanda khoye khoye tare
so gaye tu bhi so ja chand hamare
khoya khoya chanda

o o leke jadu ki chhadi aai sapno ki pari
rup nagri me tujhe chhod aayegi abhi
hai wo sapno ka jaha ek mela hai waha
desh pardesh ke bache chale waha
nile aakash ki ganga ke kinare
khoya khoya chanda khoye khoye tare
so gaye tu bhi so ja chand hamare
khoya khoya chanda

jhula chandi ka pada heere panno se jada
reshmi dor bandhi jhulega laal mera
jab bhi tu pingh bhare ja ke badal ko chue
chule bijli ko to wo khilkhilae kare
or chup jaye kahi laaz ke mare
khoya khoya chanda khoye khoye tare
so gaye tu bhi so ja chand hamare
khoya khoya chanda

kahi koi geet gaye koi bansi bajaye
or koi dhol lie dhin dhin tak sunaye
sabpe ek rang pade koi bhi bach na sake
pyar or milap ke gulal yu ude
hil mil ke koi jeete koi hare
khoya khoya chanda khoye khoye tare
so gaye tu bhi so ja chand hamare
khoya khoya chanda

Lost, lost is the moon, lost the stars now gleam,
Sleep now, my darling, sleep and dream.
Lost, lost is the moon, lost the stars above,
Sleep now, my darling, wrapped in love.
Lost, lost is the moon.

O, with a wand of magic, a dream-fairy arrives,
To the city of dreams, your spirit she strives.
There, in that world, a fair's bright call,
Children of lands afar, heed its thrall.
By the blue river of heaven's shore,
Lost, lost is the moon, lost forevermore,
Sleep now, my darling, sleep and soar.
Lost, lost is the moon.

A silver swing awaits, with gems it is arrayed,
Silk threads your cradle, where dreams are played.
As you swing and soar, to the clouds you rise,
Touch lightning's fire, and it then replies.
Then hides in shyness, shy and sore,
Lost, lost is the moon, lost and evermore,
Sleep now, my darling, upon life's shore.
Lost, lost is the moon.

A song softly sung, a flute's sweet plea,
And drums beating, for all to see.
A color descends, none can evade,
Love and union, a vibrant parade.
Some win, some lose, as life's currents pour,
Lost, lost is the moon, lost forevermore,
Sleep now, my darling, evermore.
Lost, lost is the moon.
