khuli aankh dil ne puchha, khuli aankh dil ne puchha
kya ye khwaab tha khudaya
mere dil ki dhadakano me koi pyar banke aaya

use pahli baar dekha dil bekarar dekha
ho ho use pahli baar dekha dil bekarar dekha
mai jo chaandni ka chaand samjhu ya mai aaftaab samjhu
ho o ho o
mai jo chaandni ka chaand samjhu ya mai aaftaab samjhu
is pyar ke jaha me kyu na laajawab samjhu
koi puchhe kis ada pe dil humne hai lutaya
khuli aankh dil ne puchha, khuli aankh dil ne puchha
kya ye khwaab tha khudaya
mere dil ki dhadakano me koi pyar banke aaya

wo saamne to aaye hum ek jhalak to dekhe
wo saamne to aaye hum ek jhalak to dekhe
hoti hai bijaliyon me kaisi chamak to dekhe
ye kaun sa nasha hai jo aaj humpe chhaya
khuli aankh dil ne puchha, khuli aankh dil ne puchha
kya ye khwaab tha khudaya
mere dil ki dhadakano me koi pyar banke aaya

With open eyes, my heart did plead,
"O God, was this a dream indeed?"
In every pulse, a love did bloom,
Invading all my heart's dark room.

The first glimpse, a heart's unrest,
Oh, the first glimpse, a soul distressed.
Shall I call her moon's soft gleam,
Or sun's embrace, a vibrant beam?
Oh, oh, oh...
Shall I call her moon's soft gleam,
Or sun's embrace, a vibrant beam?
In this world of love, beyond compare,
Why not call her beyond all rare?
Should they ask on what her charm did play,
With open eyes, my heart did say,
"O God, was this a dream's sweet sway?"
In every pulse, a love held sway.

Let her come forth, let one glance be,
Let her come forth, for us to see.
Oh, let us see the lightning's grace,
And the fire it does embrace.
What intoxication fills us now?
With open eyes, my heart did bow,
"O God, was this a dream somehow?"
In every pulse, a love did vow.
