aaj jaane ki zid na karo
aaj jaane ki zid na karo
aaj jaane ki zid na karo
yu hi pehlu me baithe raho
yu hi pehlu me baithe raho
aaj jaane ki zid na karo
haye mar jaayenge, ham to lut jayenge
aisi baate kiya na karo
aaj jaane ki zid na karo
aaj jaane ki zid na karo
haye mar jaayenge, ham to lut jayenge
aisi baate kiya na karo
aaj jaane ki zid na karo

tum hi socho jara, kyun na roke tumhe
jaan jaati hai jab, uthke jaate ho tum
jaan jaati hai jab, uthke jaate ho tum
tumko apni kasam janeja
baat itni meri maan lo
aaj jaane ki zid na karo
yu hi pehlu me baithe raho
yu hi pehlu me baithe raho
aaj jaane ki zid na karo
haye mar jaayenge, ham to lut jayenge
aisi baate kiya na karo
aaj jaane ki zid na karo

waqt ki kaid me zindagi hai magar
waqt ki kaid me zindagi hai magar
chand ghadiya yahi hain, jo aazad hain
chand ghadiya yahi hain, jo aazad hain
inko khokar mere janeja
umar bhar na taraste raho
aaj jaane ki zid na karo
haye mar jaayenge, ham to lut jayenge
aisi baate kiya na karo
aaj jaane ki zid na karo

kitna maasum rangin hai ye sama
husn aur ishq ki aaj me, raaz hai
husn aur ishq ki aaj me, raaz hai
kal ki kisko khabar janeja
rok lo aaj ki raat ko
aaj jaane ki zid na karo
yu hi pehlu me baithe raho
o yu hi pehlu me baithe raho
aaj jaane ki zid na karo
haye mar jaayenge, ham to lut jayenge
aisi baate kiya na karo
aaj jaane ki zid na karo

Do not insist on leaving tonight,
Do not insist on leaving tonight,
Do not insist on leaving tonight,
Remain beside me, linger near,
Remain beside me, linger near,
Do not insist on leaving tonight.
Oh, we'll perish, we'll be undone,
Do not speak such words, my dear,
Do not insist on leaving tonight,
Do not insist on leaving tonight,
Oh, we'll perish, we'll be undone,
Do not speak such words, my dear,
Do not insist on leaving tonight.

Think, my love, why wouldn't I restrain you?
Life departs when you rise to leave,
Life departs when you rise to leave,
I swear by your very soul,
Just heed this one plea, I pray:
Do not insist on leaving tonight,
Remain beside me, linger near,
Remain beside me, linger near,
Do not insist on leaving tonight.
Oh, we'll perish, we'll be undone,
Do not speak such words, my dear,
Do not insist on leaving tonight.

Life is bound by the chains of time, it's true,
Life is bound by the chains of time, it's true,
But a few hours remain, that are free,
But a few hours remain, that are free,
Losing these, my love, you'll see,
You'll yearn forever, endlessly.
Do not insist on leaving tonight,
Oh, we'll perish, we'll be undone,
Do not speak such words, my dear,
Do not insist on leaving tonight.

How innocent, how vibrant is this scene!
Beauty and love's secrets are entwined,
Beauty and love's secrets are entwined,
Who knows what tomorrow holds, my dear?
Hold fast to this night, I beg,
Do not insist on leaving tonight,
Remain beside me, linger near,
Oh, remain beside me, linger near,
Do not insist on leaving tonight.
Oh, we'll perish, we'll be undone,
Do not speak such words, my dear,
Do not insist on leaving tonight.
