likh hai mere dil pe tera hi naam balma
tujhko salam balma, tujhko salam balma
salma salim lagta hai ek naam balma
tujhko salam balma, tujhko salam balma

rakhu khuli mai khidki, rakhu khula jhrokha
rakhu khuli mai khidki, rakhu khula jhrokha
kis waqt kaun jane, koi hawa ka jhoka
kis waqt kaun jane, koi hawa ka jhoka
aa jaye leke koi tera payam balma
tujhko salam balma, tujhko salam balma
salma salim lagta hai ek naam balma
tujhko salam balma, tujhko salam balma

Etched upon my heart, your name alone, beloved,
A blessing to you, beloved, a blessing to you.
Salma, Saleem, a single name it seems, beloved,
A blessing to you, beloved, a blessing to you.

I keep the window open, the casement wide,
I keep the window open, the casement wide.
Who knows the hour, when the wind will glide,
Who knows the hour, when the wind will glide,
And bear your message, beloved, on its tide?
A blessing to you, beloved, a blessing to you.
Salma, Saleem, a single name it seems, beloved,
A blessing to you, beloved, a blessing to you.
