shaam huyi chadh aayi re badariya
abahoo n aaye, more shaam, sanwariaa
shaam huyi chadh aayi re badariya
abahoo n aaye, more shaam, sanwariaa
shaam huyi chadh aayi re badariya
shaam huyi chadh aayi re badariya

anchhuye honth mere, khoye khoye nain mere
gunjte hai parano mein, madhur madhur bol tere
meri saath bain kare, mori atariya
shaam huyi chadh aayi re badariya
shaam huyi chadh aayi re badariya

The dusk ascends, a canvas gray,
My beloved, still so far away.
The dusk ascends, a canvas gray,
My beloved, wherefore your delay?
The dusk ascends, a canvas gray,
The dusk ascends, a somber sway.

My lips untouched, my eyes adrift,
Within my soul, your whispers lift.
My heart laments, my tower sighs,
The dusk ascends, beneath these skies.
The dusk ascends, as twilight sighs.
