sara din jage to bejan si ho jati hai
sara din jage to bejan si ho jati hai
sans leti hui aankho ko jara sone do
sans leti hui aankho ko jara sone do
sans leti hui aankho ko jara sone do

bolti rahti hai gungi bate
sara din chunti hu sukhe patte
raat bhar kaati hai sukhi raate
aankhe bujh jati hai ye dekha hai
jindagi rukti nahi bujhti nahi
jindagi rukti nahi bujhti nahi
khwab chubhte hai bahut aankho me
nind jago to kabhi chubhti nahi

dar sa rahta hai jindagi ka sada
kya pata kab kaha se war kare
kya pata kab kaha se war kare
aansu thahre hai aankh ke aankho me
nind se kah do intzar kare
nind se kah do intzar kare
nind se kah do intzar kare

All day awake, a lifeless shell descends,
A breathing husk, a weary, vacant gaze.
Let slumber claim these eyes, their journey ends,
Let sleep enfold them in its hazy maze.
Let sleep embrace the eyes, and grant them peace.

Words unspoken whisper, mute and deep,
All day I gather withered, fallen leaves,
The night, a barren harvest, secrets keep,
And in the dimness, sight itself deceives.
Life does not cease, nor does it fade from view,
Life does not cease, nor does it fade from view.
Dreams, like thorns, within the eyelids dwell,
But vanish with the dawn, both false and true.

A shadow lingers, fear of life's design,
Where and when the unseen blow will fall,
Where and when the unseen blow will fall,
Tears held captive, in the eye's confine,
Tell sleep to wait, before it answers call.
Tell sleep to wait, before it answers call.
Tell sleep to wait, before it answers call.
