aa re aaja lage na mora jiya
na sata re piya aaja re aaja
aisa na ho ye bhi rat guzar jaye
sun ja o sajna birahan ki dasta
chhod akeli mohe tu kaha chal diya
aaye ab na sata re piya aaja re aaja
lage na mora jiya

mai aas liye swarg se patal me aayi
sun lo meri fariyad suno meri duhai
dar lagta hai mujko na tako aisi
nazar se tan kap gaya or mera darde
jigar se sine pe mere sap koi lot raha hai
berehm sa ek hath gala ghot raha hai
berehm sa ek hath gala ghot raha hai
berehm sa ek hath gala ghot raha hai

Come, oh come, my heart aches so,
Don't torment me, Beloved, come, oh come.
Lest this night should also pass away,
Listen, my love, to a widow's plight.
Leaving me alone, where did you go?
Come now, don't torment me, Beloved, come, oh come.
My heart aches so.

I came bearing hope from heaven to hell,
Hear my pleas, hear my desperate yell.
I fear you, don't look at me so,
My body trembles, and my heart's woe.
A serpent coils upon my breast,
A cruel hand strangles, steals my rest.
A cruel hand strangles, steals my rest.
A cruel hand strangles, steals my rest.
