zindagi dulhan hai ek raat ki zindagi dulhan hai ek raat ki
ek raat ki ek raat ki zindagi dulhan hai ek raat ki
mang bhari shaam ko baharo me saji saji raat chand taaro me
subha huyi mahandi chutti hath ki zindagi dulhan hai ek raat ki
bin bati jale umar ka diya bich dhar chhod gaya
nirday hi piya aankh band badan baat ki
zindagi dulhan hai ek raat ki zindagi dulhan hai ek raat ki

A bride, this life, a single night's embrace,
A fleeting night, then fades from time and space.
The evening's blush, a garland's gentle art,
Adorned beneath the stars, a beating heart.
The dawn arrives, the henna slips away,
From hands that held the bloom of yesterday.
A lamp of years, unlit, its wick untwined,
Abandoned on life's current, left behind.
My cruel Beloved, closed his eyes and slept,
The body silent, every promise kept.
A bride, this life, a single night's desire,
A fleeting night, consumed by fading fire.
A bride, this life, a single night's desire.
