mere jivan sathi, kali thi mai to pyasi
tune dekha hui khil ke bahar
mere jivan sathi, kali thi mai to pyasi
tune dekha hui khil ke bahar
mere jivan sathi

masti nazar me kal ke khumar ki
mukhde pe lali hai piya tere pyar ki
khushbu se teri tan ko basa ke
lahraau dali si tere gulzar ki
mere jivan sathi, kali thi mai to pyasi
tune dekha hui khil ke bahar
mere jivan sathi

kaha ka ujala abhi vahi raat hai
gori gori baaho pe jaise tera hath hai
bajti hai chudi teri dhadkan se
kaano me ab tak vahi teri bat hai
mere jivan sathi, kali thi mai to pyasi
tune dekha hui khil ke bahar
mere jivan sathi

tujhko mai sajna bindiya ka pyar du
chunri ke rang se ghar ko savar du
zulfo ka gajra naino ka kajal
tere nazrane hai tujh pe hi vaar du
mere jivan sathi, kali thi mai to pyasi
tune dekha hui khil ke bahar
mere jivan sathi

My life's companion, a thirsty bud I lay,
Until your gaze brought forth the blooming day.
My life's companion, a thirsty bud I lay,
Until your gaze brought forth the blooming day.
My life's companion.

In eyes, the bliss of yesterday's delight,
Upon my face, love's blush, your touch so bright.
Your fragrance, woven through my very core,
I sway, a branch, by your love's guiding light.
My life's companion, a thirsty bud I lay,
Until your gaze brought forth the blooming day.
My life's companion.

Where light resides, the night yet lingers near,
Your hand upon my arms, so smooth and clear.
My bangles chime with every pulse I feel,
Your whispered words still echo in my ear.
My life's companion, a thirsty bud I lay,
Until your gaze brought forth the blooming day.
My life's companion.

To you, my love, the bindi's spark I'd give,
With colors of my veil, my home I'd live.
My hair, a garland, eyes adorned with kohl,
These offerings, to you, I will forever give.
My life's companion, a thirsty bud I lay,
Until your gaze brought forth the blooming day.
My life's companion.
