shyam shyam o shyam shyam shyam shyam o shyam shyam shyam
more naino me shyam samaye more naino me shyam samaye
ab kajra ab kajra kaun lagaye rama kaun lagaye
more naino me
more naino me shyam samaye more naino me shyam samaye
shyam shyam shyam shyam shyam

naino ki mai jyot jagau naino ki mai jyot jagau
aasao ke pushp sajau aasao ke pushp sajau
man mandir ban jaye o hoho
more naino me
more naino me shyam samaye more naino me shyam samaye
shyam shyam shyam shyam shyam

yug yug se mai panth niharu yug yug se mai panth niharu
shyam shyam har diwas pukaru shyam shyam har diwas pukaru
pagla mohe banaye oho hoho
more naino me
more naino me shyam samaye more naino me shyam samaye
shyam shyam shyam shyam shyam

jab bhi pau maa ke darsan jab bhi pau maa ke darsan
kar dungi mai aatm samarpan kar dungi mai aatm samarpan
fir chahe jiwan jaye oho hoho
more naino me
more naino me shyam samaye more naino me shyam samaye
shyam shyam shyam shyam shyam
ab kajra ab kajra kaun lagaye rama kaun lagaye
more naino me
more naino me shyam samaye more naino me shyam samaye
shyam shyam o shyam shyam shyam shyam o shyam shyam shyam

Darkness, Darkness, O, Darkness, Darkness, Darkness, Darkness, O, Darkness, Darkness, Darkness.
Darkness dwells within my eyes, Darkness dwells within my eyes,
Now, kohl, now, kohl, who shall adorn, Rama, who shall adorn?
Within my eyes...
Within my eyes, Darkness dwells, within my eyes, Darkness dwells,
Darkness, Darkness, Darkness, Darkness, Darkness.

I kindle light within my eyes, I kindle light within my eyes,
With tears I weave a garland, with tears I weave a garland,
My heart becomes a temple, Oh ho ho...
Within my eyes...
Within my eyes, Darkness dwells, within my eyes, Darkness dwells,
Darkness, Darkness, Darkness, Darkness, Darkness.

Ages I have watched the path, ages I have watched the path,
Darkness, Darkness, I call each day, Darkness, Darkness, I call each day,
He drives me to madness, Oh ho ho ho...
Within my eyes...
Within my eyes, Darkness dwells, within my eyes, Darkness dwells,
Darkness, Darkness, Darkness, Darkness, Darkness.

Whenever I find Mother's sight, whenever I find Mother's sight,
I shall surrender my very soul, I shall surrender my very soul,
Then let life depart, Oh ho ho ho...
Within my eyes...
Within my eyes, Darkness dwells, within my eyes, Darkness dwells,
Darkness, Darkness, Darkness, Darkness, Darkness.
Now, kohl, now, kohl, who shall adorn, Rama, who shall adorn?
Within my eyes...
Within my eyes, Darkness dwells, within my eyes, Darkness dwells,
Darkness, Darkness, O, Darkness, Darkness, Darkness, Darkness, O, Darkness, Darkness, Darkness.
