dubi naiya dubi naiya aa ke kinare
aa ke kinare dubi naiya
jaye kaha ab gum ke mare
gum ke mare dubi naiya

badli hui hai unki nigahe
dard hai dil me lab pe aahe
dard hai dil me lab pe aahe
baithe hue hai gum ke sahare
gum ke sahare dubi naiya

takte hai naina unko harsu
takte hai naina unko harsu
rukte nahi hai aankh se aasu
rukte nahi hai aankh se aasu
chhupne ko hai ab chand sitare
chand sitare dubi naiya

hath se unka daman chhuta
hath se unka daman chhuta
chanda banke tara tuta
chanda banke tara tuta
wo gaye jhuthe sapne sare
sapne sare dubi naiya aake kinare
aake kinare dubi naiya

The vessel, sunken, kisses the shore,
The shore embraces the sunken craft.
Where now to flee, by grief devoured?
By sorrow sunk, the vessel's raft.

Their eyes have turned, a different guise,
Pain in the heart, a sigh on the lips,
Pain in the heart, a sigh that cries,
Grief's company the soul now grips.
By sorrow sunk, the vessel's raft.

My eyes now search for them in space,
My eyes now search for them in space,
Tears flow and fall, without a trace,
Tears flow and fall, without a trace,
The moon and stars their faces hide.
By sorrow sunk, the vessel's raft.

Their hand slipped from my reaching hand,
Their hand slipped from my reaching hand,
A star now broken from a moon's command,
A star now broken from a moon's command,
False dreams they left, and all have died.
The shore embraces the sunken craft.
The shore embraces the sunken craft.
