ja ja re chanda teri chandani jalaye
ja ja re chanda teri chandani jalaye
yad piya ki mora jiya tadpaye haye
ja ja re chanda teri chandani jalaye
ja ja re chanda teri chandani jalaye

rat suhani hai din bhi bahar ke
rat suhani hai din bhi bahar ke
aise me baithi hu main haye man mar ke
rat suhani hai din bhi bahar ke
aise me baithi hu mai haye man mar ke
sajan bin bekal manwa ek pal chain na pawe
ja ja re chanda teri chandani jalaye
ja ja re chanda teri chandani jalaye

dekho balam mori preet na jane
dekho balam mori preet na jane
lakh manau bairi ek na mane
lakh manau bairi ek na mane
jiske liye maine sara jag chhod a
wohi mujhe thukraye
ja ja re chanda teri chandani jalaye
ja ja re chanda teri chandani jalaye

Go, oh moon, your light now burns,
Go, oh moon, your light now burns,
My heart, in longing, fiercely yearns.
Go, oh moon, your light now burns,
Go, oh moon, your light now burns.

The night is sweet, the days in bloom,
The night is sweet, the days in bloom,
Yet here I sit, consumed by gloom.
The night is sweet, the days in bloom,
Yet here I sit, consumed by gloom.
Without my love, my soul finds no ease,
Go, oh moon, your light now burns,
Go, oh moon, your light now burns.

See, my love, he knows not my devotion,
See, my love, he knows not my devotion,
Though I plead, he spurns my notion.
Though I plead, he spurns my notion.
For whom I left the world behind,
He now rejects my cries.
Go, oh moon, your light now burns,
Go, oh moon, your light now burns.
