ishk hi odha ishk bichawa
ishk hi pada te ishk padawa
ishk da ek tabij banake
mahi de gal pawa

yaro ka dil todke jate nahi chhod ke
na ja ve mahiya na ja ve mahiya
yaro ka dil todke jate nahi chhod ke
na ja ve mahiya na ja ve mahiya

bandh lungi tujhe mai kasmo me
bich jaungi tere kadmo me
rok lungi mai tujhe raho me
tham lungi mai tujhe baho me
ban jaungi mai barsat
na ja ve mahiya na ja ve mahiya
na ja ve mahiya na ja ve mahiya

aaja lag ja tu mere sine se
dur ho jau marne jine se
aa gale lag ke sab gile honge
isse pehle bhi ham mile honge
aaj nayi hai koyi bat
aaja na meri jan aaja na meri jan
aaja na meri jan aaja na meri jan
na ja ve mahiya na ja ve mahiya
na ja ve mahiya na ja ve mahiya
yaro ka dil todke jayenge na chhod ke
jab bhi bulaoge tum aayenge ham daud ke

Love, a cloak, love a bed,
Love the lesson, love the lead.
Amulet of love, a single thread,
Around my beloved's neck, instead.

Hearts of friends, we'll not betray,
Nor leave them lost along the way.
Do not leave, my love, do not stray,
Hearts of friends, we'll always stay.

I'll bind you with vows, so true,
Beneath your steps, I'll see you through.
I'll halt your path, with all I do,
Embrace you close, in arms anew.
I'll become the pouring rain,
Do not leave, my love, feel my pain,
Do not leave, my love, again.

Come, enfold me in your chest,
Death and life, put to the test.
Embrace, and all will be confessed,
Before, our souls, were surely blessed.
Today, a novel, unknown art,
Come, my life, be close to my heart,
Come, my life, and never depart,
Do not leave, my love, do not start,
Do not leave, my love, to depart.
Hearts of friends, we'll not tear apart,
Whenever you call, we'll run to your heart.
