At twilight's hush, the goblet called,
At twilight's hush, the goblet called,
And a curious task recalled.
At twilight's hush, the goblet called.

When beauty bloomed in every face,
When beauty bloomed in every face,
Your greeting found its place.
And a curious task recalled,
At twilight's hush, the goblet called.

Hearing tales of God's great sway,
Hearing tales of God's great sway,
The human heart's frail way,
The human heart's frail way.

Let the flute's song now take flight,
Let the flute's song now take flight,
For Radha sees Shyam's light,
For Radha sees Shyam's light,
At twilight's hush, the goblet called.

Let the flute's song now take flight,
Let the flute's song now take flight,
For Radha sees Shyam's light,
For Radha sees Shyam's light,
At twilight's hush, the goblet called.

Even in the mosque's serene hold,
Even in the mosque's serene hold,
The tavern's stay, of old.
At twilight's hush, the goblet called,
And a curious task recalled,
At twilight's hush, the goblet called.
