tere darash ko tarse nain
tere darash ko tarse nain
yu rimjhim barse nain
jaise roye sawan rain haye
tere darash ko tarse nain
tere darash ko tarse nain
yu rimjhim barse nain
jaise roye sawan rain haye
tere darash ko tarse nain
tere darash ko tarse nain

dahak rahi man me agni
aisi lagan hai kisko lagni
jaisi mere jee ko jalaye
jee ko jalake sau dukh paye
jee ko jalake sau dukh paye
lut gaya man ka chain haye
tere darash ko tarse nain
tere darash ko tarse nain

tere bina kyu sawan aaya
pyasi aankho ko tadpaya
ruthi nindiya sapne tute
pyar dilase nikle jhuthe
pyar dilase nikle jhuthe
kaun sune mere bain
tere darash ko tarse nain

My eyes, they thirst for your sight,
My eyes, they yearn for your light,
As a drizzle, my eyes now weep,
Like a monsoon night in sleep.
My eyes, they thirst for your sight,
My eyes, they yearn for your light.

In my heart, a fire does gleam,
A longing, a burning dream,
That scorches the soul within,
A hundred sorrows begin.
The peace of my heart is lost,
At what a terrible cost.
My eyes, they thirst for your sight,
My eyes, they yearn for your light.

Why did the monsoon appear,
Without you, my love, so dear?
It torments these thirsty eyes,
While broken are all my lies.
My sleep and my dreams have fled,
And promises, now they're dead.
Who hears the cries that I wail?
My eyes, they thirst for your trail.
