manmohan mukhda mod gaye
manmohan mukhada mod gaye aur base videsh me jaye
main janamjali birhan bankar reh gayi tadap ke haye
manmohan mukhda mod gaye

o preetam mujhse sahi na jaye teri chakhi na judai
chamke na chand
chamke na chand bansi na baaje prano me peer savayi
aankho me bahe jal ki dhara jo mann ko aur dubaye
manmohan mukhada mod gaye

ek roj yaha gunji thi hasi ek roj yaha khushbu thi basi
par tu na tanha aaj yaha vo bhi kaha o preet kaha
biraha ki aag lagi tan me jalti hu sada mann hi mann me
biraha ki aag lagi tan me jalti hu sada mann hi mann me
din raat yaha rehti hu khadi naina us aur lagaye
manmohan mukhada mod gaye

He turned his face, my beloved, turned away,
And journeyed far, to foreign lands to stay.
I, born to love, a widow of the heart,
Am left to yearn, to tear apart.
He turned his face, my beloved, turned away.

O, my love, I cannot bear the pain,
Your absence, a relentless rain.
The moon no longer gleams,
The flute is hushed, it seems.
In my soul, a deeper sorrow blooms,
And tears, a river, floods my rooms.
He turned his face, my beloved, turned away.

Once laughter echoed here, a vibrant sound,
And fragrance sweet, upon this ground.
But you are gone, alone I stand,
Where is our love, where is your hand?
The fire of separation burns within,
My body consumed, my heart within.
Night and day, I stand and wait,
My eyes fixed on that distant gate.
He turned his face, my beloved, turned away.
