yu rutho na hasina meri jaan pe ban jayegi
meri jaan pe ban jayegi
haye yu rutho na hasina
yu rutho na hasina meri jaan pe ban jayegi
meri jaan pe ban jayegi
haye yu rutho na hasina

karte na jo bahana, nazdik kaise aate
ye fasla ye duri, hum kis tarah mitate
hatho me tum na lete, jab hath hi hamara
is beqrar dil ko, milta kaha sahara
haye yu rutho na hasina

ye baal bikhre bikhre, gaalo pe yu na hote
ye naag kale kale, phulo me yu na sote
ye raat ka andhera din se gale na milta
ulfat ka shokh guncha, aise na dil me khilta
haye yu rutho na hasina

aao karib aao, palko pe baith jao
aankho me jhum jao, dil me mere samao
ab muskura ke kehdo, hum to khafa nahi hai
ik dil hai ek jan hai, hum tum juda nahi hai
haye yun rutho na hasina, meri jaan pe ban jayegi
meri jaan pe ban jayegi, meri jaan pe ban jaayegi
haye yu rootho na hasina

Don't be cross, my beauty, my life hangs in the balance,
My life hangs in the balance.
Oh, don't be cross, my beauty.
Don't be cross, my beauty, my life hangs in the balance,
My life hangs in the balance.
Oh, don't be cross, my beauty.

If we hadn't found pretense, how could we have drawn near?
This distance, this separation, how would we erase it, my dear?
If your hand hadn't met my own,
Where would this restless heart find solace known?
Oh, don't be cross, my beauty.

These tresses, unbound and scattered, wouldn’t grace your cheeks this way,
These raven locks, would not sleep amongst flowers, where shadows lay.
The night’s darkness would not embrace the day,
Love’s playful bud would not blossom in this heart’s sway.
Oh, don't be cross, my beauty.

Come closer, come closer, on my eyelids, take your seat,
In my eyes, dance and sway, in my heart, your being greet.
Now, with a smile, declare to me, anger you do not embrace,
One heart, one soul, we are not separate in this space.
Oh, don't be cross, my beauty, my life hangs in the balance,
My life hangs in the balance, my life hangs in the balance.
Oh, don't be cross, my beauty.
