sanu ik pal chain na aave sajna tere bina
dil kamla dub dub jaave sajna tere bina
sanu ik pal chain na aave sajna tere bina
khuda dushman kise nu vi hijar da rog na laave
zamana marda thaane judai jaan pai khave
sanu ik pal chain na aave sajna tere bina

beqadre naal preetan laake aiyho kuj hi hona
sunjian raavan thakde raina kalea beh ke roova
sanu ik pal chain na aave sajna tere bina
beparvai aadat teri ve aasan rakhian

suthre bhag na jaage mere sohn na dendian aakhiya
sanu ik pal chain na aave sajna tere bina
than ve pyasa, man ve pyasa tenu kol bulavan
tu aavain te jaan na deevan javain te mar
sanu ik pal chain na aave sajna tere bina
dil kamla dub dub jaave sajna tere bina

A moment's peace, a breath of calm, I crave, my love,
Without your grace, my spirit drowns above,
A moment's peace, I cannot find, my dear.
May God forbid this grief to any soul,
This parting's sting, a tale the ages roll.
A moment's peace, I cannot find, my dear.

To bind your heart to those who do not see,
This is the fate that's meant for you and me.
On empty roads, I sit and weep alone.
A moment's peace, I cannot find, my dear.
Your careless ways, a wound that won't give way,
And trust, I did, in what you used to say.

My fate is sealed, my eyes can't sleep in peace,
And yet, I see your beauty, never cease.
A moment's peace, I cannot find, my dear.
The desert thirsts, my soul with longing sighs,
I call for you, beneath these weeping skies,
Come, and my heart will know its paradise.
A moment's peace, I cannot find, my dear.
My spirit drowns, without your guiding star.
