more nain baawre
more nain baawre chham-chham nir bahaaye
tum ho dur sajanva ham dukh kise sunaaye
more nain baawre

kaahe ko dekho hame tum ghur-ghur ke
kaahe ko dekho hame tum ghur-ghur ke
bas ki nahi kuchh mujh majbur ke
bas ki nahi kuchh mujh majbur ke
maangu yahi duaaye, maangu yahi duaaye
hame lag jaaye aah kisi ki ham mar jaaye
more nain baawre
more nain baawre chham-chham nir bahaaye
tum ho dur sajanva ham dukh kise sunaaye
more nain baawre

pyaar ki laaj tore haath more saiyaa re
pyaar ki laaj tore haath more saiyaa re
jag me hansaai na ho padu tore paiyaan re
jag me hansaai na ho padu tore paiyaan re
itni araj gujaaru, itni araj gujaaru
kisi bahaane mil jaana din bite jaaye
more nain baawre
more nain baawre chham-chham nir bahaaye
tum ho dur sajanva ham dukh kise sunaaye
more nain baawre

My eyes, they are mad with longing,
My eyes, they weep, a constant flow,
You are distant, my love, to whom shall I tell my sorrow?
My eyes, they are mad with longing.

Why do you stare at me so, with such a gaze?
Why do you stare at me so, with such a gaze?
I, a prisoner, have no control,
I, a prisoner, have no control.
Only this prayer I offer, only this prayer I offer:
May I be cursed, may I fade away,
My eyes, they are mad with longing,
My eyes, they weep, a constant flow,
You are distant, my love, to whom shall I tell my sorrow?
My eyes, they are mad with longing.

The honor of love rests in your hand, my beloved,
The honor of love rests in your hand, my beloved,
Let me not be ridiculed in this world, I fall at your feet,
Let me not be ridiculed in this world, I fall at your feet,
This plea I make, this plea I make:
Meet me somehow, as the days slip by,
My eyes, they are mad with longing,
My eyes, they weep, a constant flow,
You are distant, my love, to whom shall I tell my sorrow?
My eyes, they are mad with longing.
