saajh dhale gagan tale
saajh dhale gagan tale ham kitne ekaaki
chhod chale nayano ko kirano ke pakhi
saajh dhale gagan tale ham kitne ekaaki

path ki jaali se jhaak rahi thi kaliyaa
path ki jaali se jhaak rahi thi kaliyaa
gandh bhari gungun me magan hui thi kaliya
itne me timir dasa sapne le nayno me
kaliyo ke aansuo kaa koi nahi saathi
chhod chale nayano ko kirano ke pakhi
saajh dhale gagan tale ham kitne ekaaki

juganu kaa pat odhe aayegi raat abhi
juganu kaa pat odhe aayegi raat abhi
nishigandha ke sur me kah degi baat sabhi
nishigandha ke sur me kah degi baat sabhi
kapata hai man jaise daali ambavaa ki
chhod chale nayano ko kirano ke pakhi
saajh dhale gagan tale ham kitne ekaaki
saajh dhale gagan tale ham kitne ekaaki

Beneath the sky, as twilight descends,
How solitary we are, at journey's end.
Leaving eyes behind, like birds of light,
Beneath the sky, in twilight's lonely night.

From the path's woven lace, buds softly peeked,
In fragrant hums, their sweet surrender leaked.
Then darkness fell, ten dreams within the eye,
No solace found for petals' teardrop cry.
Leaving eyes behind, like birds of light,
Beneath the sky, in twilight's lonely night.

The firefly's cloak, the night will soon embrace,
In tuberose song, secrets time can't erase.
A trembling heart, like mango bough so frail,
Leaving eyes behind, where sunlit visions pale.
Beneath the sky, as twilight descends,
How solitary we are, at journey's end.
Beneath the sky, in twilight's lonely night.
