o ho ho ae
jaanam jana na, jaanam jana na
jaanam jana na tum
na hona khafa, na hona juda
tanha mujhe na chhodna
yu dil todke, yu munh modke
na jana kabhi mujhe chhodke tum
jaanam jana na, jaanam jana na
jaanam jana na tum

ye ishq chhaya hai banke nasha
jaane mujhe kya ho gaya
dekho jara tum dil me mere
pyar ye tumse karne laga
dil baar baar bas ye kahe
hoti hai kyu majburiya
jo dur humse, tum jo huye
sah na sakenge ye duriya hum
jaanam jana na, jaanam jana na
jaanam jana na tum

khamosh kyu ho kuch to bolo
dekho na aise lab to kholo
hum pe sitam na aise karo
chaho agar to meri jaan lo
hairan kyu hai dil ye tera
chahta hai tumhe bas dil mera
tum sath do jo jee lunga main
tanha jeeyu itna nahi dum
jaanam jana na, jaanam jana na
jaanam jana na tum

Oh, oh, oh, alas...
Beloved, don't depart, beloved, don't depart,
Beloved, don't depart from me.
Don't be angered, don't be estranged,
Don't leave me lonely.
Don't, by breaking my heart, by turning away,
Ever leave me.
Beloved, don't depart, beloved, don't depart,
Beloved, don't depart from me.

This love has descended, a shadow, a haze,
I know not what's become of me.
Look, if you would, within my heart,
It has begun to love you.
The heart repeats, again and again,
Why are there these compulsions?
If you're distant from me, if you depart,
I cannot bear this separation.
Beloved, don't depart, beloved, don't depart,
Beloved, don't depart from me.

Why this silence? Say something,
Look, open your lips, speak!
Don't inflict such suffering on me,
If you wish, take my life.
Why is your heart so bewildered?
My heart only desires you.
If you stand by me, I will live,
I have not the strength to live alone.
Beloved, don't depart, beloved, don't depart,
Beloved, don't depart from me.
