mujhse yun ruth kar tum
kyun dur ja rahi ho
dil to mera diya hai
kyun ise bujha rahi ho
mujhse yun ruth kar tum

aawaz de rahe hain
aankho ka hai ishara
tere bina o sajan
mera kahan guzara
barabad mujhko karake
duniya basa rahe ho
dil to mera diya hai
kyun ise bujha rahi ho
mujhse yun ruth kar tum

koi mujhe bata de
kab aayega sawera
ujda mera chaman hai
koi nahi basera
yun loot kar kisi ke
dil ko rula rahe ho
mujhse yun ruth kar tum
kyun door ja rahe ho
dil to mera diya hai
kyun ise bujha rahi ho
dil to mera diya hai
kyun ise bujha rahi ho

Why do you turn from me,
and walk so far away?
My heart, a lamp I gave,
why do you dim its ray?
Why do you turn from me?

My eyes, they call to you,
their language, can you see?
Without you, dearest love,
how can life carry me?
To ruin me, and then
a new world you create.
My heart, a lamp I gave,
why do you dim its fate?
Why do you turn from me?

Tell me, someone, please,
when dawn will break anew.
My garden's lost its bloom,
no haven I pursue.
To plunder and then break
another's heart so true.
Why do you turn from me,
and walk so far away?
My heart, a lamp I gave,
why do you dim its ray?
My heart, a lamp I gave,
why do you dim its ray?
