sajna re balma re
tere bin tikha tikha, fika fika lage
jobna hamar, jobna hamar
o sajna re mohe balma re
mohe tere bin tikha tikha
fika fika fika fika lage
tere bin fika fika lage
jobna hamar, jobna hamar
jobna hamar, jobna hamar
tikha tikha lage, tikha tikha lage
tikha tikha lage

main sari raat royi, mere rasiya teri yaad me
o main pal bhar na soyi, manbasiya teri chah me
kaise samjhega koi kiske sapno me khoi
tare gin gin haari, tu to aaya na anadi
kaise ratiya gujare mohe tere bin fika fika lage
tere bin fika fika laage
jobna hamar, jobna hamar
jobna hamar, jobna hamar
jobna hamar ha fika lage
jobna hamar ha fika lage
jobna hamar ha fika lage

ye naina kunaare, dekhe sapne suhag saje
ho main dekhu tujhe to, shahnaai si man me baje
doli le aa tu dwaare, chal du sang main tihare
chadhti jawani jaise baadh ka pani
main to hui re divani mohe tere bin fika fika lage
tere bin fika fika laage
jobna hamar, jobna hamar
jobna hamar, jobna hamar

My love, my beloved,
Without you, all tastes sharp and bitter,
Flat and faded,
My youth, my youth.
Oh, my love, my beloved,
Without you, sharp and bitter,
Flat, flat, flat, flat it feels,
Without you, flat and faded,
My youth, my youth,
My youth, my youth.
Sharp and bitter it feels,
Sharp and bitter it feels,
Sharp and bitter it feels.

I wept the whole night long, lover, remembering you,
I did not sleep a moment, my heart's desire, longing for you.
How can anyone know in whose dreams I am lost?
Counting stars I grew weary, you, the simple one, did not come,
How shall I spend the nights? Without you, flat and faded.
Without you, flat and faded,
My youth, my youth,
My youth, my youth,
My youth, yes, it feels faded,
My youth, yes, it feels faded,
My youth, yes, it feels faded.

These eyes are untouched, dreaming dreams of a blessed union,
When I see you, in my heart, like a shehnai, the music swells.
Bring the palanquin to my door, I will go with you,
Rising youth like a flood's water,
I have become mad, without you, flat and faded,
Without you, flat and faded,
My youth, my youth,
My youth, my youth.
