tu nazm nazm sa mere
honthon pe thehar ja
main khawab khawab sa teri, aankhon me jaagun re

tu ishq ishq sa mere, rooh me aake bas ja
jis aur teri shehnaai, uss or main bhaagun re

haath thaam le piya, karte hain vaada
ab se tu aarzoo, tu hi hai iraada

mera naam le piya, main teri rubaai
teri hi to piche
piche barsaat aayi barsaat aayi

tu itr itr sa mere
saanson me bikhar jaa
main faqeer tere kurbat ka
tujhse tu maangun re

tu ishq ishq sa mere, rooh me aake bas ja
jis aur teri shehnaai, uss aur main bhaagun re
tu nazm nazm sa mere, honthon pe thehar ja
main khawab khawab sa teri, aankhon me jaagun re

mere dil ke lifafe me
tera khat hai janiya, tera khat hai janiya
nacheez ne kaise paa li, kismat yeh janiya ve

mere dil ke lifaafe me
tera khat hai janiya, tera khat hai janiya
nacheez ne kaise paa li, jaanat ye janiya ve

tu nazm nazm sa mere, honthon pe thehar ja
main khawab khawab sa teri, aankhon me jaagun re
tu ishq ishq sa mere, rooh me aake bas ja
jis aur teri shehnaai, uss aur main bhaagun re

You, like a poem, linger on my lips,
I, a dream, awaken in your eyes.
You, like love, reside within my soul,
Towards your flute's call, my spirit flies.

Hold my hand, Beloved, let's make a vow,
Henceforth, you are my desire, my intention.
Call my name, Beloved, I am your verse,
Behind you alone,
The rains descend, a sweet ascension.

You, like perfume, scatter in my breath,
I, a mendicant, near to you,
From you, I seek only you,
In your nearness, I find my death.

You, like love, reside within my soul,
Towards your flute's call, my spirit flies.
You, like a poem, linger on my lips,
I, a dream, awaken in your eyes.

In the envelope of my heart,
Your letter rests, Beloved, your letter.
How did this nothingness attain,
This fate, Beloved?
In the envelope of my heart,
Your letter rests, Beloved, your letter.
How did this nothingness attain,
This paradise, Beloved?

You, like a poem, linger on my lips,
I, a dream, awaken in your eyes.
You, like love, reside within my soul,
Towards your flute's call, my spirit flies.
