tere pehlu me chala aaya hu mai
zinadagi ke gum se ghabraya hua
kya kahu tujh bin mera ye haal hai
jaise koi phul dundhlaya hua
mujhko is duniya me kuch bhata nahi
ek nazar jab tak na tujhko dekh lu
kyu mere dil ko karar aata nahi
ek nazar jab tak na tujhko dekh lu

meri har ek saans tera geet hai
dil nahi ye dhadkano ka saaj hai
meri har ek saans tera geet hai
dil nahi ye dhadkano ka saaj hai
maine vo khamosh nagme sun liye
do dilo ki ek hi aawaz hai
har taraf sangeet lehrata nahi
ek nazar jab tak na tujhko dekh lu
kyu mere dil ko karar aata nahi
ek nazar jab tak na tujhko dekh lu

gar khuda bhi dur se aawaz de
mai na jau tera daman chhod ke
tujhse gar bichdi to mai mar jaugi
dekh le ulfat ke naate tod ke
zindagi se kuch mera naata nahi
ek nazar jab tak na tujhko dekh lu
kyu mere dil ko karar aata nahi
ek nazar jab tak na tujhko dekh lu

Beside you, I have found my way,
Frightened by life's shadowed fray.
What words can paint the state I'm in,
A fading bloom, its colors thin?
This world holds little that can please,
Until your face my vision sees.
Why does my heart not find its ease,
Until your face my vision sees?

Each breath I take, your song it sings,
Not heart, but rhythm that love brings.
Each breath I take, your song it sings,
Not heart, but rhythm that love brings.
I've heard the silent melodies,
Two souls entwined, a single ease.
Music's waves on every side,
Until your face my eyes have spied.
Why does my heart not find its ease,
Until your face my vision sees?

If God himself should call afar,
I'd not leave your embrace, no scar.
Should I be parted, death I'd find,
To break the bonds that intertwine.
No tie remains to life's embrace,
Until your face my eyes can trace.
Why does my heart not find its ease,
Until your face my vision sees?
