so ja so ja chandani
chand sitare so rahe
main jaagu nadiya jage pankh pakheru so rahe
so ja so ja chandani

pat bhi jara sa khula tha dil ka
kab aa gayi tu pata na chala
pat bhi jara sa khula tha dil ka
kab aa gayi tu pata na chala
tujh se pahle koi dusra na tha
tere jaisa koi dekha na tha
ae tujh se pahle koi dusra na tha
tere jaisa koi dekha na tha
so ja so ja chandani
chand sitare so rahe
main jaagu nadiya jage pankh pakheru so rahe
so ja so ja chandani

khushbu ka koi watan kaisa
hawa ke sath hai sang uska
khushbu ka koi watan kaisa

bichhde jo hum milan kaisa
so ja so ja chandani
chand sitare so rahe
main jaagu nadiya jage
hu hu la lla
so ja so ja chandani

Sleep now, sleep now, moonbeam,
The moon, the stars, are slumbering.
I, awake, the rivers wake, wings and feathers sleep,
Sleep now, sleep now, moonbeam.

The door of my heart, ajar,
Unknowing, you arrived, unseen.
The door of my heart, ajar,
Unknowing, you arrived, unseen.
Before you, none other existed,
Like you, I’d never seen.
Oh, before you, none other existed,
Like you, I’d never seen.
Sleep now, sleep now, moonbeam,
The moon, the stars, are slumbering.
I, awake, the rivers wake, wings and feathers sleep,
Sleep now, sleep now, moonbeam.

Fragrance knows no homeland,
With the wind, its journey entwined.
Fragrance knows no homeland,
With the wind, its journey entwined.
Our togetherness, a fleeting moment,
If we part, what reunion can we find?
Our togetherness, a fleeting moment,
If we part, what reunion can we find?
Sleep now, sleep now, moonbeam,
The moon, the stars, are slumbering.
I, awake, the rivers wake,
Hmm hmm la la la
Sleep now, sleep now, moonbeam.
