o janeman janeja ja rahe ho kahan
janeman janeja ja rahe ho kahan
husn ka sath hai aisi kya baat hai
jo nahi hai yaha
janeman janeja ja rahe ho kahan

nind aaye to julfo ka saya karu
jaagna ho to khabo me aaya karu
nind aaye to julfo ka saya karu
jaagna ho to khabo me aaya karu
jo hukum do meharba ha ha
janeman janeja ja rahe ho kahan
janeman janeja ja rahe ho kahan

koi dil me hai agar andhera kiye
ye hasina jalaye najar ke diye
koi dil me hai agar andhera kiye
ye hasina jalaye najar ke diye
to roshni ho waha ho ho
janeman janeja ja rahe ho kahan
janeman janeja ja rahe ho kahan

ruthe naina ghata chhayi farmaiye
hai khushi ki jarurat ke gham chahiye
ruthe naina ghata chhayi farmaiye
hai khushi ki jarurat ke gham chahiye
lo badal do sama ho ho
janeman janeja ja rahe ho kahan
janeman janeja ja rahe ho kahan
husn ka sath hai aisi kya baat hai
jo nahi hai yaha
janeman janeja ja rahe ho kahan

Oh, beloved, my soul, where do you stray?
Beloved, my soul, where do you stray?
Beauty's embrace, what compels your chase,
What's absent, away?
Beloved, my soul, where do you stray?

If slumber descends, your tresses my shade,
If waking desired, in dreams, I'll pervade.
If slumber descends, your tresses my shade,
If waking desired, in dreams, I'll pervade.
With dominion and grace, yes, indeed,
Beloved, my soul, where do you stray?
Beloved, my soul, where do you stray?

If shadows reside, darkening your core,
Let this beauty ignite, eyes as lamps to pour.
If shadows reside, darkening your core,
Let this beauty ignite, eyes as lamps to pour.
Then radiance will gleam, oh, so bright,
Beloved, my soul, where do you stray?
Beloved, my soul, where do you stray?

If eyes cloud in storm, tell me your need,
Is joy's sweet embrace, or sorrow indeed?
If eyes cloud in storm, tell me your need,
Is joy's sweet embrace, or sorrow indeed?
Let me shift the scene, oh, so free,
Beloved, my soul, where do you stray?
Beloved, my soul, where do you stray?
Beauty's embrace, what compels your chase,
What's absent, away?
Beloved, my soul, where do you stray?
