ye chandani raato mein chhup chhup ke mulakate
din hai to yahi din hai raate hai yahi raate
ye chandani raato mein chhup chhup ke mulakate

do bahate huye dhare do hansate huye tare
do bahate huye dhare do hansate huye tare
mil mil ke sunate hai mil mil ke sunate hai
kuchh bikhari hui baate kuchh bikhari hui baate
din hai to yahi din hai raate hai yahi raate
ye chandani raato mein chhup chhup ke mulakate

pani ki ravani par bikhare hai kamal aise
pani ki ravani par bikhare hai kamal aise
jaise kisi mahfil mein jaise kisi mahfil mein
baithi hui barate
din hai to yahi din hai raate hai yahi raate
ye chandani raato mein chhup chhup ke mulakate

kuchh vo na juda hamse kuchh hum na juda unse
hai ek hakikat mein jahir mein hai saougate
din hai to yahi din hai raate hai yahi raate
ye chandani raato mein chhup chhup ke mulakate
ye chandani raato mein chhup chhup ke mulakate
ye chandani raato mein chhup chhup ke mulakate

In moonlit nights, clandestine meetings ignite,
Days are these days, and nights, these very nights.
In moonlit nights, clandestine meetings ignite.

Two streams that flow, two stars that laugh and gleam,
Two streams that flow, two stars that laugh and gleam,
Together they whisper, together they weave,
Of tales fragmented, tales they softly bequeath.
Days are these days, and nights, these very nights,
In moonlit nights, clandestine meetings ignite.

On waters that ripple, lotuses unfold,
On waters that ripple, lotuses unfold,
As though a gathering, as though a scene,
Of wedding processions, a vibrant, serene.
Days are these days, and nights, these very nights,
In moonlit nights, clandestine meetings ignite.

They, not apart from us, nor we from them part,
One truth they embody, in plain sight, a sweet start.
Days are these days, and nights, these very nights,
In moonlit nights, clandestine meetings ignite.
In moonlit nights, clandestine meetings ignite.
In moonlit nights, clandestine meetings ignite.
