raina biti jaye, sham na aaye
raina biti jaye, sham na aaye
nindiya na aaye, nindiya na aaye
raina biti jaye, sham na aaye
raina biti jaye

sham ko bhula, sham ka vada
sham ko bhula, sham ka vada
sag diye ke, jaoge radha
nindiya na aaye, nindiya na aaye
raina biti jaye, sham na aaye
raina biti jaye

kis sautan ne roki dagariya
kis sautan ne roki dagariya
kis bairan se laagi nazariya
nindiya na aaye, nindiya na aaye
raina biti jaye, sham na aaye
raina biti jaye

biraha ki mari, prem divani
biraha ki mari, prem divani
tan man pyasa akhiyo me pani
nindiya na aaye, nindiya na aaye
raina biti jaye, sham na aaye
raina biti jaye

Night bleeds on, no twilight descends,
Night bleeds on, no twilight descends,
Slumber escapes, slumber evades,
Night bleeds on, no twilight descends,
Night bleeds on.

Forsaking dusk, its whispered vow,
Forsaking dusk, its whispered vow,
With the lamp's flame, you'll leave, O Radha, now,
Slumber escapes, slumber evades,
Night bleeds on, no twilight descends,
Night bleeds on.

Which rival blocked your path's way?
Which rival locked your sight astray?
Whose cursed glance steals the day?
Slumber escapes, slumber evades,
Night bleeds on, no twilight descends,
Night bleeds on.

Love's thirst, a soul consumed,
Love's thirst, a soul consumed,
Body and mind, in tears entombed,
Slumber escapes, slumber evades,
Night bleeds on, no twilight descends,
Night bleeds on.
