o tara ko chand banane wale, iss chand ko kaun sanbhale
badal aayenge ban ban kar matawale

bhole pardesee bar bar too aana
teree hasino me meraa chhupa jamana
too dil ko apane dil ke pas bula le

din me kushiya raton me mastee aai
ek nayee chhabi banati hai har angadai
julfon kee chhanv me apane nain ghula le

Oh, Maker of moon from a single star,
Who cradles the moon, however far?
Clouds shall gather, drunk with wild, untamed fire.

Simple stranger, return again and again,
My era hides in your laughter's domain.
Call my heart close, to your heart's desire.

Joy in the day, revelry in the night,
Each curve, a new image, taking flight,
In the shadow of tresses, let your eyes drown.
