banere utte aa, banere utte aa
tu mere sonika
banere utte aa
je tu aake leve oda naam
te hun mera aave sajna
je tu aake leve oda naam
te hun mera aave sajna

raata main gujariya ve
ankhiya de hanju pee ke
kamli main huyi sajna
akelya tere bin jee ke
je chudi chhanke, te dil dhadke
teri yaada meri koi
banduk na parol
je tu aake leve oda naam
te hun mera aave sajna
banere utte aa, banere utte aa
o mere sonika
tu banere utte aa

sara sara din vekha
ungli ko chhalla kad ke
uta pacha likha tera naam
kali nu main vad ke
na dudh vidda
te khave chidka
ae tainu ki pata
ke hondi ki wafa
je tu aake leve oda naam
te hun mera aave sajna
banere utte aa, banere utte aa
o mere sonika
banere utte aa
je tu aake leve oda naam
te hun mera aave sajna
te hun mera aave sajna
banere utte aa
te hun mera aave sajna
banere utte aa
te hun mera aave sajna
banere utte aa
te hun mera aave sajna
banere utte aa

Come to the rooftop, come,
my beloved, come.
Come to the rooftop.
If you but speak his name,
then mine, my love, will come.
If you but speak his name,
then mine, my love, will come.

Nights I've passed,
drinking the tears of my eyes.
I've gone mad, my love,
living alone, without you.
If bangles chime, and heart beats fast,
your memories are near.
Don't reach for the gun, my dear.
If you but speak his name,
then mine, my love, will come.
Come to the rooftop, come,
Oh, my beloved,
come to the rooftop.

All day long I wait,
fingering my ring.
I wrote your name,
on the dark walls, carving.
No milk will curdle,
only the crows will feast.
What do you know
of true faith?
If you but speak his name,
then mine, my love, will come.
Come to the rooftop, come,
Oh, my beloved,
come to the rooftop.

If you but speak his name,
then mine, my love, will come.
Then mine, my love, will come.
Come to the rooftop.
Then mine, my love, will come.
Come to the rooftop.
Then mine, my love, will come.
Come to the rooftop.
Then mine, my love, will come.
Come to the rooftop.
