o aanewaale ruk jaa ko_i dam
rastaa ghere hai bahaar laakho gam
o aanewaale aanewaale

aa mai tujhe aankho me basaa lun
rag bhare aanchal me chhupaa lun
tujh pe lutaa dil-jaan o nadaan
o sharamaanewaale
sharamaanewaale ruk jaa ko_i dam
rastaa ghere hai bahaar laakho gam
o aanewaale aanewaale

lovely sarod interlude

nikhadaa hu_aa hai raat kaa jaadu
bikhadi hu_i hai zulfo ki khushabu
dil kaa ishaaraa pahachaan mai qurabaan
o tadapaanewaale
tadapaanewaale ruk jaa ko_i dam
rastaa ghere hai bahaar laakho gam
o aanewaale aanewaale

paayal ki jhakaar me kho jaa
sapano ke sasaar me kho jaa
rah jaa yahin pe mahamaan kahaa maan
o tarasaanewaale
tarasaanewaale ruk jaa ko_i dam
rastaa ghere hai bahaar laakho gam
o aanewaale aanewaale

tabla and sarod accelerates in pace

O, you who come, pause for a breath, stay,
A thousand sorrows throng the path today.
O, you who come, who come this way.

Come, let me hold you in my eyes' deep well,
Conceal you in my vibrant, sheltering spell.
My heart, my soul, for you, I give, my dear,
O, you who blush, who tremble, hold you near.
O, you who blush, pause for a breath, stay,
A thousand sorrows throng the path today.
O, you who come, who come this way.

The night's enchantment blooms, a vibrant art,
The fragrance of your tresses tears my heart.
My soul's own sign, I bow, I sacrifice,
O, you who wound, who pierce me with your price.
O, you who wound, pause for a breath, stay,
A thousand sorrows throng the path today.
O, you who come, who come this way.

Get lost in the anklet's tinkling chime,
Be lost inside a world of dreams, in time.
Remain with me, a guest, and heed my plea,
O, you who yearn, who torture, stay with me.
O, you who yearn, pause for a breath, stay,
A thousand sorrows throng the path today.
O, you who come, who come this way.

You who come - 5
