aaj ki raat meri gali mein aane jaane ki koshish naa karna
aane jaane ki koshish naa karna
aaj ki raat meri gali mein aane jaane ki koshish naa karna
aane jaane ki koshish naa karna
neend se band hai meri aankhein
tum jagane ki koshish naa karna
dil lagaane ke kaabil nahi main dil lagane ki koshish naa karna
aa aaj ki raat meri gali mein aane jaane ki koshish naa karna

ek to kaatein chubhe phulon ki chhaon mein
uspe mehendi lagi hai mere paon mein
aisi halat mein aana hai mushkil
aisi halat mein aana hai mushkil
tum bulane ki koshish naa karna
tum bulane ki koshish naa karna
aaj ki raat meri gali mein aane jaane ki koshish naa karna

dekhna haath se chhut jaaungi main
dekhna haath se chhut jaaungi
main aaine ki tarah toot jaaungi main
main agar pyar mein rooth jaun
main agar pyar mein rooth jaun
tum manane ki koshish naa karna
tum manane ki koshish naa karna
aaj ki raat meri gali mein aane jaane ki koshish naa karna

Tonight, tread not the path to my street,
attempt not to come,
attempt not to come.
Tonight, tread not the path to my street,
attempt not to come,
attempt not to come.
My eyes are sealed with slumber's deep hold,
Do not strive to awaken me.
I am unworthy of love's embrace,
Do not seek to entangle hearts.
Ah, tonight, tread not the path to my street.

For thorns now pierce the floral shade,
And henna stains my wounded tread.
In such a plight, arrival is a trial,
arrival is a trial.
Do not strive to summon me,
do not strive to summon me.
Tonight, tread not the path to my street.

Behold, I shall slip through your grasp,
behold, I shall slip away.
I shall shatter like a mirror's frail form.
If I turn in love's despair,
if I turn in love's despair,
Do not strive to appease me,
do not strive to appease me.
Tonight, tread not the path to my street.
