puja karu ya pyar karu, jaan na paau
puja karu ya pyar karu, jaan na paau
phulo se neet singaar karu, jaan na paau
puja karu ya pyar karu, jaan na paau

tasveer teri ab to sanam, dil mein sama li
tasveer teri ab to sanam, dil mein sama li
saanso mein tumhari wo
mehek man mein basali
yaado ke charago ki sada jyot jaga li
is baat ka izhaar karu, jaan na paau
puja karu ya pyar karu, jaan na paau

peeli hai suraahi, ke kadam behek chale hai
angaar tamannao ke, ab dahak chale hai
ab phul dil mein pyaar ke
leh lehak chale hai
najro ko kaise chaar karu, jaan na paau
puja karu ya pyar karu, jaan na paau

ab teri ummedo ki, leher aur uthegi
ab teri ummedo ki, leher aur uthegi
ab pyaar ki ulfat ki kasak aur jagegi
ab ishq ki chahat ki lagan aur lagegi
kya tujh pe ab nisaar karu, jaan na paau
puja karu ya pyar karu, jaan na paau
puja karu ya pyar karu, jaan na paau
phulo se neet singaar karu, jaan na paau

Should I worship, or should I love, I cannot know.
Should I worship, or should I love, I cannot know.
With flowers adorn, I cannot know.
Should I worship, or should I love, I cannot know.

Your image, beloved, now dwells within my heart,
Your image, beloved, now dwells within my heart.
Your fragrance, oh, in my breath,
I have enshrined in my mind.
The lamps of memory, their eternal light I have aligned.
To declare this, I cannot know.
Should I worship, or should I love, I cannot know.

The pitcher is yellow, and steps begin to falter,
Embers of desire, now begin to ignite.
Now, the flowers of love within my heart,
begin to bloom with fervor.
How to make my gaze meet yours, I cannot know.
Should I worship, or should I love, I cannot know.

Now, the waves of your hopes will rise again,
Now, the waves of your hopes will rise again.
Now, the longing of love's embrace will awaken again,
Now, the devotion of love's desire will ignite again.
What sacrifice to make for you, I cannot know.
Should I worship, or should I love, I cannot know.
Should I worship, or should I love, I cannot know.
With flowers, I always adorn, I cannot know.
