ek bar agar tu kahe de
ek bar agar tu kahe de, tu hai meri ke me hu tera
ham do albele panchhi
ham do albele panchhi, ham dono ka ek basera

do dil dhadke hai, chounk uthi hai jawaniya
kuchh kaha hai nigaho ne, chhed ke pyar ki kahaniya
kuchh kaha hai nigaho ne, chhed ke pyar ki kahaniya
mera dil hi nahi hai mere bas me
mera dil hi nahi hai mere bas me
yeh kis ne jadu phera, kaho ji yeh kis ne jadu phera
ham dono ka ek basera

aa jaye na kahi ham-tum kisi ki nigaho me
sang sang hi chale ham jindagi ki raaho me
sang sang hi chale ham jindagi ki raaho me
tujhe chhin na le koi mujhse
tujhe chhin na le koi mujhse
yeh jag hai bada lutera, suno ji yeh jag hai bada lutera
ham dono ka ek basera

dekho aai hai sitaro ki timtimati yeh toliya
chalo inn ki chhao me ham khele aankh micholiya
chalo inn ki chhao me ham khele aankh micholiya
tute na kabhi jivan bhar
tute na kabhi jivan bhar
yeh bandhan tera mera, oho ji yeh bandhan tera mera
ham dono ka ek basera
ek bar agar tu kahe de
ek bar agar tu kahe de, tu hai meri ke me hu tera

If you but whisper once,
If you but whisper once, saying, "You are mine, or I am yours,"
We, two free-spirited birds,
We, two free-spirited birds, sharing one nest.

Two hearts thrum, youth jolts awake,
Eyes have spoken, stirring tales of love's sweet ache.
Eyes have spoken, stirring tales of love's sweet ache.
My heart no longer dwells within my hold,
My heart no longer dwells within my hold,
Who has spun this spell, tell me, who has spun this spell?
Sharing one nest.

Lest we stumble, you and I, into prying eyes,
Together we shall walk life's winding ways, with shared sunrise.
Together we shall walk life's winding ways, with shared sunrise.
Lest someone snatch you from my grasp,
Lest someone snatch you from my grasp,
For this world is a thief, hear me, this world is a thief.
Sharing one nest.

See, the twinkling stars have gathered in a shimmering throng,
Let us play hide-and-seek within their shadows, where we belong.
Let us play hide-and-seek within their shadows, where we belong.
May this bond never break,
May this bond never break,
For all our days, yours and mine, oh, yours and mine.
Sharing one nest.
If you but whisper once,
If you but whisper once, saying, "You are mine, or I am yours."
