saanjh bhayi ghar aaja re piya
saanjh bhayi ghar aaja
din to duba, dub na jaye
din to duba, dub na jaye
aas ka suraj aaja re
saanjh bhayi ghar aaja re piya
saanjh bhayi ghar aaja

dur mile wo amber dharti
raat mili hai din se
tere pi kahan hai puchhe
purwa mujh birhan se
samajh na paau kya batlaau
samajh na paau kya batlaau
tu hi ye batla ja re
saanjh bhayi ghar aaja re piya
saanjh bhayi ghar aaja

ban gayi teri aahat
mere sune man ki dhadkan
saans bhi lu to yu lagta hai
aaya mera saajan
kaanpti palko se asuwan ke
kaanpti palko se asuwan ke
jalte deep bujha ke
saanjh bhayi ghar aaja re piya
din to duba, dub na jaye
aas ka suraj aaja re
saanjh bhayi ghar aaja re piya
saanjh bhayi ghar aaja

Evening descends, return home, Beloved,
Evening has come, return.
The day has set, lest it also drown,
Lest it also drown,
The sun of hope, arise, Beloved,
Evening has come, return home, Beloved,
Evening has come, return.

Where the sky and earth embrace,
Night has met the day,
"Where is your love?" they ask,
The winds, of my widowhood, they say.
I understand not, what shall I tell,
I understand not, what shall I tell,
You, alone, reveal,
Evening has come, return home, Beloved,
Evening has come, return.

Your footsteps have become,
The rhythm of my desolate heart,
Even when I breathe, it seems,
My love has arrived, has made a start.
From trembling eyelids, tears flow,
From trembling eyelids, tears flow,
Extinguish the burning lamp,
Evening has come, return home, Beloved,
The day has set, lest it also drown,
The sun of hope, arise, Beloved,
Evening has come, return home, Beloved,
Evening has come, return.
