kab mera hale dil puchoge tum sanam
kab mera hale dil puchoge tum sanam
is intzar me mar hi na jaye hum
is intzar me mar hi na jaye hum
aaja aaja aaja nikal na jaye pal

chand khud me ho na jaye gum
jaan jane kab aaoge tum
kab tak chale is aag par
mai or meri diwangi
jaan jane kab aaoge tum
kabhi ye bhi socha kabhi ye bhi jana
ke mar mar ke jinda hai hum
kab mera hale dil puchoge tum sanam
is intzar me mar hi na jaye hum
aaja aaja aaja nikal na jaye pal

uthane laga dil se dhua jalne lahi tanhaiya
ik rat me ab sath hai mai or meri parchaiya
pagal hawa pagal shama
lagne laga dusman jaha
mere khwab chun lo saza meri sun lo
tumhe zindagi ki kasam
kab mera hale dil puchoge tum sanam
is intzar me mar hi na jaye hum
aaja aaja aaja nikal na jaye pal

When will you ask of my heart's state, beloved?
When will you ask of my heart's state, oh love?
In this waiting, lest I perish, lest I fade,
In this longing, could I be consumed, my dove?
Come, come, come, let not this moment flee,
lest the moon itself be lost at sea.

When, my soul, will you return to me?
How long must I tread this fiery pyre?
I and my madness, bound eternally.
When, my love, will you come to me?
Have you ever pondered, ever known,
that we live on the brink, our lives unknown?
When will you ask of my heart's state, beloved?
In this waiting, lest I perish, lest I fade,
Come, come, come, let not this moment flee.

Smoke ascends from a heart aflame,
Loneliness now blazes, a consuming game.
In one night, I am alone with my shadow, cast.
The wind is mad, the world is vast,
the world now seems my enemy.
Choose my dreams, hear my plea,
by your life, I beg you see,
When will you ask of my heart's state, beloved?
In this waiting, lest I perish, lest I fade,
Come, come, come, let not this moment flee.
