chupke chupke chupke hum palko
me kitni sadiyo se rahte hai
aa dub ke dekhe nile se sagar
me kaise bahte hai
aa jana dub ke dekhenge

aankho ki jhile chhoti hai
inme chhupna aur lukna kya
jab chadti dhup me jalna hai
to pal bhar chhav me rukna kya
chupke chupke chupke hum palko
me kitni sadiyo se rahte hai

jo socha hai wo jhuth nahi
mahsus kiya jo pas nahi
hum ruh ki aag me jalte hai
ye jism ka jhuta taap nahi
na kaid ujale hote hai
na khushbu band ho pati hai
kya bandh saka hai koi hawa
jo sans hai aati jati hai
chupke chupke chupke hum palko
me kitni sadiyo se rahte hai
aa dub ke dekhe nile se sagar
me kaise bahte hai
aa jana dub ke dekhenge

Silently, silently, silently, within these lashes,
We have dwelt for countless centuries.
Come, let us plunge and witness, in the azure ocean,
How we flow, how we are carried away.
Come, let us drown and truly see.

The lakes of eyes are small indeed,
What is the use of hiding, of concealing there?
When we are destined to burn in the rising sun,
What is the point of pausing for a moment in the shade?
Silently, silently, silently, within these lashes,
We have dwelt for countless centuries.

What is thought is not untrue,
What is felt is not near.
We burn in the fire of the soul,
This is not the fleeting warmth of the body.
Neither is the light ever imprisoned,
Nor can the fragrance be confined.
Who has ever bound the wind?
The breath that comes and goes, you see.
Silently, silently, silently, within these lashes,
We have dwelt for countless centuries.
Come, let us plunge and witness, in the azure ocean,
How we flow, how we are carried away.
Come, let us drown and truly see.
