nain thake ghadi pal ginte ginte
nain thake ghadi pal ginte ginte
din bitega rain rote rote
nain thake ghadi pal ginte ginte

kaase kahun main pi ke baina
kaase kahun main pi ke baina
sun ri sakhi mori pinjre ki maina
ye jug ban gaye baaro maas rote rote
nain thake ghadi pal ginte ginte

tan ban gayo deepak man bhayo baati
tan ban gayo deepak man bhayo baati
aayo sandesha na aai sajan ki paati
aayo sandesha na aai sajan ki paati
dheeraj mohe bandhaaye more aansu bahte bahte
nain thake ghadi pal ginte ginte
din bitega rain rote rote
nain thake ghadi pal ginte ginte
nain thake ghadi pal ginte ginte

Eyes are weary, counting moments' flight,
Eyes are weary, counting moments' flight,
Days will vanish, nights in weeping's light,
Eyes are weary, counting moments' flight.

To whom shall I whisper, my Beloved's name?
To whom shall I whisper, my Beloved's name?
Listen, my sister, my caged, sorrowful flame,
This life has become twelve months of the same,
Eyes are weary, counting moments' flight.

My body, a lamp, my mind, the wick's strand,
My body, a lamp, my mind, the wick's strand,
Messages arrive, but no letter from that land,
Messages arrive, but no letter from that land,
Patience I try to hold, as my tears expand,
Eyes are weary, counting moments' flight,
Days will vanish, nights in weeping's light,
Eyes are weary, counting moments' flight,
Eyes are weary, counting moments' flight.
