mere nain bawre haste hai ya rote hai
mere nain bawre haste hai ya rote hai
duniya kya jane duniya kya jane
shabnam ki hasi ke piche aasu hote hai
duniya kya jane duniya kya jane

apna aap jalake suraj deta hai jag ko ujiyara
apne tan ko ghayal karke hi sunata hai ektara
kuch aise bhi anjane rishte hote hai
kuch aise bhi anjane rishte hote hai
duniya kya jane duniya kya jane
mere nain bawre haste hai ya rote hai
duniya kya jane duniya kya jane

manjil ka pathar kya jane
kisne kiska sath nibhaya
darpan pyar kare surat se
dekh sake na man ki chaya
kuch aachal maile hokar ujale hote hai
kuch aachal maile hokar ujale hote hai
duniya kya jane duniya kya jane
mere nain bawre haste hai ya rote hai
duniya kya jane duniya kya jane

My wandering eyes, do they laugh or weep?
My wandering eyes, do they laugh or weep?
The world knows not, the world knows not,
That tears reside where dewdrops sleep.
The world knows not, the world knows not.

The sun consumes itself to light the day,
The one-stringed lute, wounded, begins to play.
Some bonds exist, though unseen, unheard,
Some bonds exist, though unseen, unheard,
The world knows not, the world knows not,
My wandering eyes, do they laugh or weep?
The world knows not, the world knows not.

The milestone knows not who walked beside,
The mirror loves the face, the surface bright,
Yet fails to see the shadows deep inside.
Some stains that soil, they then become light.
Some stains that soil, they then become light.
The world knows not, the world knows not,
My wandering eyes, do they laugh or weep?
The world knows not, the world knows not.
