kaha ho tum meri tanhaiya awaj deti hai
sulagti raat ki parchaiya aawaj deti hai
meri umar se lambi ho gayi bairan raat judai ki
ho o bairan raat judai ki

dhul ki chadar odh ke sar par so gaye chand sitare
birah ki agni aisi badhki jal gaye bhag hamare
nagan ban kar dasti hai ye gadiya tanhai ki
o ye gadiya tanhai ki meri umar se lambi ho gayi
bairan raat judai ki

ujiyare me bhatak rahe hai naina khoye khoye
bhor bhaye tak o bedardi kya jane kya hoye
rakh paye to rakh de aakar laaj meri rushwayi ki
o laaj meri rushwayi ki meri umar se lambi ho gayi
bairan raat judai ki o bairan raat judai ki

Where are you, my solitude calls,
Shadows of smoldering nights call.
My age, outstripped by a barren night of separation,
Oh, barren night of separation.

Dust’s shroud, the moon and stars asleep,
Grief's fire raged, our fortunes weep.
Like serpents, these lonely hours sting,
Oh, these lonely hours sting. My age, outstripped by,
a barren night of separation.

Lost, my eyes wander in the light,
Till dawn, oh heartless one, what plight?
If you can, save me from this shame,
Oh, shame, my disgrace. My age, outstripped by,
a barren night of separation. Oh, barren night of separation.
