naino ke baan ki reet anokhi
naino ke baan ki reet anokhi
baan chale aur nain na dekhe
baan chale aur nain na dekhe
naino ke baan ki

nain se nikle nain me aaye
nain se nikle nain me aaye
naina re hariday me samaye
naina re hariday me samaye
ek baan se aag laga kar
ek baan se aag laga kar
ek baan se aag bujhaye
din na dekhe or rain na dekhe
baan chale aur nain na dekhe
naino ke baan ki

kaliyo ki muskan na jane
bhawro ka sukh chain na dekhe
bhawro ka sukh chain na dekhe
hasi hasi me man yu chine
hasi hasi me man yu chine
hans juge jyun chupa seep se moti
hans juge jyun chupa seep se moti
ya jyun pawan chale aur chal kar
ya jyun pawan chale aur chal kar
ha chin le nirbal deep se jyoti
ha chin le nirbal deep se jyoti
man sune aur bain na dekhe
baan chale aur nain na dekhe
baan chale aur nain na dekhe
naino ke baan ki

The eyes' arrow, a custom unseen,
The eyes' arrow, a custom unseen,
The arrow flies, the eyes perceive not,
The arrow flies, the eyes perceive not,
Of the eyes' arrow.

From the eye, they spring, in the eye they return,
From the eye, they spring, in the eye they return,
From eyes to the heart, they descend,
From eyes to the heart, they descend,
With one arrow, they kindle the fire,
With one arrow, they quench the flame,
They see neither day nor night,
The arrow flies, the eyes perceive not,
Of the eyes' arrow.

The buds' smile, they know not,
The bees' ease, they do not see,
The bees' ease, they do not see,
In laughter, they steal the heart away,
In laughter, they steal the heart away,
Like swans that pluck pearls from shells,
Like swans that pluck pearls from shells,
Or as the wind blows and travels on,
Or as the wind blows and travels on,
It steals the light from a frail lamp,
It steals the light from a frail lamp,
The heart falls silent, words unspoken,
The arrow flies, the eyes perceive not,
The arrow flies, the eyes perceive not,
Of the eyes' arrow.
