mere shyam suno meri binti
haay mere shyam suno meri binti
mein binti kar kar hare
mere shyam suno meri binti

tum sukh ki sej pe sowat ho
tum sukh ki sej pe sowat ho
main tadpat hoon dukhiyaari
mere shyam suno meri binti

tumse na kahu to kahu kisse
tumse na kahu to kahu kisse
tumse preet laagi jabse
tumse preet laagi jabse
tum preet lagakar ruth gaye
tum preet lagakar ruth gaye
mein preet lagakar haari
mein preet lagakar haari
mere dil ko haay mere dil ko
haay mere shyam suno mere dil ki

din raat birah dukh akele sahu
tum bin palchhin chain kaha
bas takat hun baant tumhari
bas takat hun baant tumhari
main preet lagakar haari
tum preet lagakar ruth gaye
tum preet lagakar ruth gaye
meri binti haay meri binti
hay mere shyam suno meri binti
main binti kar kar hari
mere shyam suno meri binti
hay mere shyam suno meri binti

My Dark Lord, hear my plea,
Oh, my Dark Lord, hear my plea.
I weary with supplication,
My Dark Lord, hear my plea.

You slumber on beds of bliss,
You slumber on beds of bliss,
While I, a sorrowful one, am consumed,
My Dark Lord, hear my plea.

To whom else can I turn?
To whom else can I turn?
Since love bloomed for you alone,
Since love bloomed for you alone,
You, having loved, then departed,
You, having loved, then departed,
I, having loved, have been defeated.
My heart aches, oh, my heart aches,
Oh, my Dark Lord, hear my plea.

Day and night, I bear the pain of separation alone,
Without you, where is peace?
I only watch for your return,
I only watch for your return,
I, having loved, have been defeated,
You, having loved, then departed,
You, having loved, then departed,
My plea, oh, my plea,
Oh, my Dark Lord, hear my plea.
I weary with supplication,
My Dark Lord, hear my plea.
Oh, my Dark Lord, hear my plea.
