meri sun le araz banwari, meri sun le araz banwari
tere dwar khadi dukhyari, tere dwar khadi dukhyari
meri sun le araz banwari, meri sun le araz banwari
tere dwar khadi dukhyari, tere dwar khadi dukhyari

aar na sujhe par na sujhe, ab koi duja dwar na sujhe
aar na sujhe par na sujhe, ab koi duja dwar na sujhe
kon thikane jau parbhu mai, chhod ke saran tihari
chhod ke saran tihari
tere dwar khadi dukhyari, tere dwar khadi dukhyari

chhin ka meri aas ka moti, kho gai in naynan ki jyoti
chhin ka meri aas ka moti, kho gai in naynan ki jyoti
tere jagat me bhatak rahi hu, mai mamta ki mari
mai mamta ki mari
tere dwar khadi dukhyari, tere dwar khadi dukhyari
meri sun le araz banwari, meri sun le araz banwari
tere dwar khadi dukhyari, tere dwar khadi dukhyari

Hearken, Beloved, hear my plea,
Before Your gates, I stand, misery.
Hearken, Beloved, hear my plea,
Before Your gates, I stand, misery.

No haven seen, no solace found,
No other door on hallowed ground.
Where shall I go, O Lord Divine,
Forsaking all, I claim as Thine?
Forsaking all, I claim as Thine?
Before Your gates, I stand, misery.

The pearl of hope, snatched from my breast,
The light of eyes, now unpossessed.
Lost in the world, I wander, frail,
By mother-love's relentless gale.
By mother-love's relentless gale.
Before Your gates, I stand, misery.
Hearken, Beloved, hear my plea,
Before Your gates, I stand, misery.
