pehli nazar me hamne to apna dil de diya tha tumko
par tumne der lagaai ruk-ruk ke baat badhaai
waise to hamne milte hi tumse apna liya tha tumko
par jaane ki baat jo aayi na keh ke kadar badhaai

dekha tumhe to hamne sabse nazar utha li
khone ki chiz kho li, paane ki chiz paa li
ho o sidhe na sahi ghum ke sahi mil to gaye hai
pehli nazar me hamne to apna dil de diya tha tumko
par tumne der lagaai ruk-ruk ke baat badhaai

hamne tumhaari khaatir kya-kya kiye bahaane
ho o aasan nahi mohabbat ab to ye baat maani
ho o chhod a nahi dam jaise bhi ho ham mil to gaye hai
pehli nazar me hamne to apna dil de diya tha tumko
par tumne der lagaai ruk-ruk ke baat badhaai

likha tha aasmaa par yun hi ye khel hona
pehle nazar ulajhana phir dil ka mel hona
ho o chhodo ye gile jaise bhi mile mil to gaye hai
pehli nazar me hamne to apna dil de diya tha tumko
par tumne der lagaai ruk-ruk ke baat badhaai

At first glance, my heart surrendered to you,
But you lingered, building our wordy rendezvous.
Though meeting you, I embraced you with all I knew,
The talk of parting, unspoken, made my love imbue.

When I saw you, I turned from all other eyes,
Losing what I cherished, and winning the prize.
We met in roundabout ways, yet our souls now arise;
At first glance, my heart surrendered to you,
But you lingered, building our wordy rendezvous.

For you, I spun tales, created each subtle guise,
Oh, love's not so simple, I now realize.
We never gave up, however we've grown, we harmonize;
At first glance, my heart surrendered to you,
But you lingered, building our wordy rendezvous.

This game was etched in the heavens above,
To tangle our gazes, then entwine our love.
Forget all complaints, we've found each other, by grace thereof;
At first glance, my heart surrendered to you,
But you lingered, building our wordy rendezvous.
