maine kaha janeman meharban
maine kaha haye janeman meharban
ye kaisa aana hai ye kaisa jana hai
ek pal ko rukiye na meri kasam
o maine kaha janeman meharban
maine kaha haye janeman meharban

hui baat kya
ho hui baat kya
gabraye hye hai aap kyu
jara boliye ji jara boliye
muh fere huye chup chap hai kyu
do jawab jara kya ho gaya aapko
do jawab jara kya ho gaya
o maine kaha janeman meharban
maine kaha haye janeman meharban

chali aaiye ha chale aaiye
julfo ki nashli chav tale
jara dekhiye ji jara dekhiye
aa jaye na kahi dil panv tale
badi bhul hui jo dil diya
ho badi bhul hui jo dil diya
o maine kaha janeman meharban
maine kaha haye janeman meharban


mujhe chhod ke ha mujhe chhod ke
kaha najare jhukaye aap chale
kaha maniye ha kaha maniye
jana hai to jana raat dhale
yaha kya nahi jo chahiye aapko
o yaha kya nahi jo chahiye
o maine kaha janeman meharban
maine kaha haye janeman meharban
ye kaisa aana hai ye kaisa jana hai
ek pal ko rukiye na meri kasam
o maine kaha janeman meharban
maine kaha haye janeman meharban

I said, my beloved, my gracious one,
I said, alas, my beloved, my gracious one,
What is this coming, what is this departing?
Just a moment, I swear, stay with me.
Oh, I said, my beloved, my gracious one,
I said, alas, my beloved, my gracious one.

What has transpired, what has happened?
Why are you so troubled, so afraid?
Speak, tell me, please, speak to me,
Why do you turn away, silent and still?
Answer me, tell me what has befallen you,
Answer me, tell me what has befallen you.
Oh, I said, my beloved, my gracious one,
I said, alas, my beloved, my gracious one.

Come closer, yes, come closer now,
Beneath the intoxicating shade of your hair.
Look, please, just look at me,
Lest your heart be crushed beneath your feet.
A great mistake, to give my heart away,
Oh, a great mistake, to give my heart away.
Oh, I said, my beloved, my gracious one,
I said, alas, my beloved, my gracious one.

Leaving me, yes, leaving me now,
Where are your eyes cast as you depart?
Listen to me, yes, listen to me now,
If you must go, go when night descends.
What is missing here, what do you need?
Oh, what is missing here, what do you need?
Oh, I said, my beloved, my gracious one,
I said, alas, my beloved, my gracious one.

What is this coming, what is this departing?
Just a moment, I swear, stay with me.
Oh, I said, my beloved, my gracious one,
I said, alas, my beloved, my gracious one.
