soyi hai dulhan rat ki mathe pe chanda sazaye
tu bhi soja ladli tohe mamta sulaye
soyi hai dulhan rat ki mathe chanda sazaye

unghe pawan soye suman
dali ke aanchal se lipti hui har kali so gayi
galiyo ka shor khamosh hai
raho ke sine pe chal chal ke ab zindagi so gayi
mund le palke do ghadi nindiya ruth na jaye
tu bhi soja ladli tohe mamta sulaye

aansu dhale deepak jale jivan ke andhiyare aangan me
phir bhi andhera hai kyu ye raz hum puchhe kis se
apni hi aankho se aujhal khushi ka sawera hai kyu
soye hai bhagwan chain se kaise koi jagaye
tu bhi soja ladli tohe mamta sulaye

The night, a bride, with moon on brow, now sleeps,
My darling child, to slumber gently creeps.
The night, a bride, with moon on brow, now sleeps.

The breeze now slumbers, blossoms softly dream,
Each bud, within the branch's arms, does gleam.
The city's clamor hushed, a silent stream,
Life, weary, rests upon the roads that seem
To whisper secrets. Close your eyes, my dear,
Lest sleep forsake you, and we find no cheer.
My darling child, to slumber gently creeps.

Tears fall like lamps, in life's dim courtyard gleam,
Yet darkness lingers, shadows softly teem.
Why this deep night, this sorrow's bitter theme?
From our own eyes, the dawn of joy does flee.
How can we wake the One who sleeps so free?
My darling child, to slumber gently creeps.
