duniya kya jane mera afsana
kyon gaye dil ulfat ka tarana
duniya kya jane mera afsana
kyon gaye dil ulfat ka tarana
duniya kya jane

ho o o
neend na aye dil bas mein nahi
tu hai kahen to piya main hoon kahen
neend na aye dil bas mein nahi
tu hai kahen to piya main hoon kahen
o sajanwa re o balamwa re
chandani raten aur ye saman
rut bhi anokhi main bhi jawan
main bhi deewani tu bhi deewana
phir kaise bete mausam suhana

rat kate na bin tere piya
aja akele nahi lage jiya
rat kate na bin tere piya
aja akele nahi lage jiya
o sajanwa re o balamwa re
jhilmil tare mast hava
ched de murali aa ke zara
tere sang gaon main kya gana
sun-sun ke jisko nache zamana
duniya kya jane mera afsana
kyon gaye dil ulfat ka tarana
duniya kya jane

The world, it knows not the tale I keep,
Why my heart sings love's secrets deep.
The world, it knows not the tale I keep,
Why my heart sings love's secrets deep.
The world, it knows not.

Oh, oh, oh...
Sleep flees, my heart unbound,
You are there, and here I'm found.
Sleep flees, my heart unbound,
Sleep flees, my heart unbound.
Oh, my beloved, my darling dear,
Moonlit nights, the air so clear,
A season strange, and I in bloom,
Lost in madness, you in doom,
And how then shall the sweet time pass?

The night, it ends not, without you near,
Come, alone, my soul knows fear.
The night, it ends not, without you near,
Come, alone, my soul knows fear.
Oh, my beloved, my darling dear,
Stars like jewels, the wind's sweet art,
Play your flute, and touch my heart.
With you, what song will I then sing?
A song that makes the world take wing,
The world, it knows not the tale I keep,
Why my heart sings love's secrets deep.
The world, it knows not.
