khafa na hona agar main puchhu
kaha se paya ye husn o sabab tumne
khafa na hona agar main puchu
kaha se paya ye husn o sabab tumne
kaho dekhe hai kabhi bhule se
apne galo pe khilte gualab tumne
khafa na hona agar main puchu

suna jo apna jikar jara aankhe hai sarmayi hui
suna jo apna jikar jara aankhe hai sarmayi hui
jism simata chala gaya ruh hai sarmayi hui
sadgi me bhi sokhi ka andaz hai
khafa na hona agar mai puchu
kaha se paya ye husn o sabab
tumne khafa na hona agar main puchu
chand ko humne chand kaha or kuchh apni bhul nahi
chand ko humne chand kaha or kuchh apni bhul nahi
kaise khulti apni juba hote na tum agar hasi
sari mahfil se pucho ke kya hal hai

khafa na hona agar main puchu
kaha se paya ye husn o sabab tumne
khafa na hona agar main puchu
kaha se paya ye husn o sabab tumne
kaho dekhe hai kabhi bhule se
apne galo pe khilte gualab tumne
khafa na hona agar mai puchu

Do not be angered if I ask,
From where did you gather this beauty, this youth?
Do not be angered if I ask,
From where did you gather this beauty, this youth?
Tell me, have you ever seen, by chance,
Roses bloom upon your own cheeks?
Do not be angered if I ask.

Hearing my mention, your eyes shyly lower,
Hearing my mention, your eyes shyly lower,
The body shrinks, the soul retreats, shy,
A playful charm even in simplicity,
Do not be angered if I ask,
From where did you gather this beauty, this youth?
Do not be angered if I ask.
We called the moon, the moon, and there was no fault in that,
We called the moon, the moon, and there was no fault in that,
How could my tongue have spoken if you weren't so lovely?
Ask the entire gathering what they have to say.

Do not be angered if I ask,
From where did you gather this beauty, this youth?
Do not be angered if I ask,
From where did you gather this beauty, this youth?
Tell me, have you ever seen, by chance,
Roses bloom upon your own cheeks?
