o jaaniyaa nigaahe na churaa
bas dekh pyaar se bin maage de du jaa
maine yah kyaa dekh liyaa maine yah jaan liyaa

kyaa hai mere yaar teraa pyaar kyaa hai vafaa
mujhe na thaa ye pataa teri ye bholi adaa degi mujhe bhi kabhi dhokhaa
o jaaniyaa

tujhe kyaa hu_aa jaan-e-jigar badal ga_i kyo teri nazar
kar meraa yaki o beraham tu meraa jaanam meraa sanam
jo hu_aa usako bhul jaa ab to maan le kahaa meraa
o jaaniyaa

jaanataa hun mai teri ye adaa chaal na ye chal jaal na bichhaa
kaise kar lu mai teraa yaki husn bevafaa kabhi nahi
honaa hogaa jo meraa hogaa vo
tujhe hai zaalim kyaa ye jaane tu kahaa
o jaaniyaa

Beloved, do not avert your gaze,
Look at me with love, and without asking, I'll surrender my soul.
What have I seen? What have I come to know?

What is your love, my friend, what is your faithfulness?
I did not know, your innocent ways, would ever deceive me so.
Beloved...

What has become of you, heart's beloved, why has your gaze changed?
Trust me, O merciless one, you are my life, my love.
Forget what has passed, now heed my words.
Beloved...

I know this trick of yours, do not play this game, do not weave this snare.
How can I trust you? Beauty is never true.
What is destined to be, will be.
Do you even know, cruel one, where you are going?
Beloved...
