koi mujhe raat ko yaad kare
koi mujhe raat ko yaad kare
taro ki jhurmut mein aake wo
milne ki phariyaad kare
koi mujhe raat ko yaad kare
wo kahe gagan pe aa jaao
ye tare mujhe darate hai
hum naam tumhara lete hai
ye or mujhe damkate hai
ye chand bhi teri chahat ko
ye chand bhi teri chahat ko
na jane kyo barbad kare
koi mujhe rat ko yaad kare

main chhup tha panchhi bol uathe
or wo phariyadi ruth gaya
main chhup tha panchhi bol uathe
or wo phariyadi ruth gaya
wo ruthe dil pe chot lagi
main choka sapna tut gaya
ab rota hoon kab raat pade
phariyad phir phariyad kare
koi mujhe rat ko yaad kare
pahele to gagan jala dalo

phir puchho chand sitaro se
kya ber hai tumko ulfat se
or hum ulfat ke maro se
main chand ko grhan lag jaau
main chand ko grhan lag jaau
har tara ye phariyad kare
koi mujhe raat ko yaad kare
koi mujhe raat ko yaad kare

Let someone remember me in the night,
Let someone remember me in the night,
And come to the stars, in their twinkling light,
To plead for a meeting, with all of their might.
Let someone remember me in the night.

They'll say, "Come to the heavens, above,"
"These stars, they do frighten, with all of their love."
"We speak of your name," in whispers we weave,
"And they shine ever brighter, we can’t believe."
This moon, with its yearning, a burning above,
This moon, with its yearning, destroying my love,
Why does it destroy, that love I crave?
Let someone remember me in the night.

I was silent, but birds began to sing,
And the pleader, they sulked, with a sorrowful sting.
I was silent, but birds began to sing,
And the pleader, they sulked, a heart in its swing.
That sulking heart, a wound it would bring,
And my startled dream, it shattered, taking wing.
Now I weep, for when night will descend,
And the pleader again, their plea will extend.
Let someone remember me in the night.
First, set the heavens ablaze with your fire,

Then ask of the moon, and the stars in the choir,
"What grudge do you hold, 'gainst love's desire?"
And we, the lovers, consumed by the pyre.
I will eclipse the moon, dimming its gleam,
I will eclipse the moon, a forgotten dream,
And every star, their sorrow will seem,
To let someone remember me in the night.
Let someone remember me in the night.
