kis liye maine pyar kiya dil ko yuhi beqarar kiya
sham savere teri rah dekhi raat din intazar kiya
kis liye maine pyar kiya dil ko yuhi beqarar kiya
sham savere teri rah dekhi raat din intazar kiya
kis liye maine pyar kiya

ankho me mai ne kajal dala mathe pe bindiya lagai
aise me tu aa jae to kya ho ram duhai
chhup ke mun me armano ne li kaisi agadai
koi dekhe to kya samajhe ho jae rusvai
mai ne kyo singar kiya dil ko yuhi beqarar kiya
sham savere teri rah dekhi raat din intazar kiya ho
kis liye maine pyar kiya

aaj vo din hai jisake liye mai tadapi banake radha
aaj mere man ki bachaini bad gai aur zyada
pyar me dhoka na kha jae ye man sidha sada
aisa na ho jhutha nikale aaj milan ka vada
mai ne kyo aitabar kiya dil ko yuhi beqarar kiya
sham savere teri rah dekhi raat din intazar kiya
kis liye mai ne pyar kiya dil ko yuhi beqarar kiya
sham savere teri rah dekhi raat din intazar kiya
kis liye mai ne pyar kiya

Why did I love, set my heart adrift,
Always restless, a wandering gift?
Mornings and evenings, I watched for your trace,
Days and nights, in this waiting space,
Why did I love?

In my eyes, I've darkened the line,
On my brow, a jewel does shine,
What if you arrive now, alas, what then?
Oh, the hidden longings within,
How my heart sighs!

Hidden desires, in secret they sway,
If others should see, what would they say?
Why did I adorn, my heart left in pain,
Mornings and evenings, I watched in vain,
Why did I love?

This is the day for which I, like Radha, did yearn,
My heart's unrest is now hard to discern,
Lest I be deceived in this love I embrace,
My simple heart, in this lonely place,
Hopes for no lies.

Lest this meeting proves false, and our vows fall,
Why did I trust, my heart at the call,
Mornings and evenings, I watched, I implored,
Why did I love, my heart now adored,
Why did I love?
Mornings and evenings, I watched for your trace,
Days and nights, in this waiting space,
Why did I love?
