akhiya pyasi ki pyaase
jivan bhar aansu me dubi par akhiya pyasi ki pyasi
jivan bhar aansu me dubi
saajan ke bina mera jivan hain chand bina punarmasi
jivan bhar aansu me dubi

hoti man me aahat tere aane ki
hoti man me aahat tere aane ki
par tumne thaani dur chale jaane ki
tere charno ko taras rahi
tere charno ko taras rahi tere hi charno ki daasi
jivan bhar aansu me dubi

jivan na sahi do din ke liye to aao
jivan na sahi do din ke liye to aao
do din naa sahi palchhin ke liye mil jaao
mera ek janam to bana jaao
mera ek janam to bana jaao fir apna banaao chauraasi
jivan bhar aansu me dubi par akhiya pyasi ki pyasi

My eyes, parched deserts, forever yearn,
Drowned in tears, the soul's unending burn.
My life, a moonlit night, yet incomplete,
Without my love, a sorrow bittersweet.
Drowned in tears, my spirit's deep defeat.

A whisper of your coming, in my heart,
Yet you chose distance, a world set apart.
My soul desires your sacred tread,
Longing to be your servant, softly led.
Drowned in tears, by grief so widely spread.

Oh, come, if only for a fleeting day,
If not a day, a moment, come what may.
Grant me a life, however brief,
Then cast me out, into life's endless grief.
Drowned in tears, the thirst I cannot cease.
My eyes, parched deserts, find no release.
