sawan aawan kah gaye kar gaye kal ghane
ginte ginte khis gayi ungliyo ki reet
ho dil me samake milne na aaye, kaise tum apne kaise paraye
ho dil me samake milne na aaye, kaise tum apne kaise paraye
ho dil me samake

tujhe taro ne dekha tujhe chanda ne dekha
ek ham hi abhage tujhe hamne na dekha
mere saono me aye par aise na aye
ho dil me samake milne na aaye, kaise tum apne kaise paraye
ho dil me samake milne na aaye, kaise tum apne kaise paraye
ho dil me samake

tujhe ankhiya bulaye suni ratiya bulaye
aake milja kanhiya haye ham kaise aaye
mere naina lage na jabse naina lagaye
ho dil me samake milne na aaye, kaise tum apne kaise paraye
ho dil me samake milne na aaye, kaise tum apne kaise paraye
ho dil me samake

They promised a monsoon's return, pledged vows untold,
Counting, counting, the lines on my fingers grow old.
Though you dwell within my heart, you never come to meet,
How can I know friend from foe, when our souls don't greet?
How can I know friend from foe, when our souls don't greet?
Forever deep within...

Stars have seen your face, the moon has gazed on you,
Only I, ill-fated, have never caught your view.
You visit in my dreams, but never truly appear,
Though you dwell within my heart, you never come near.
How can I know friend from foe, when our souls don't greet?
How can I know friend from foe, when our souls don't greet?
Forever deep within...

My eyes they call for you, the silent nights implore,
Come, Kanhaiya, meet with me, how can I reach your door?
My eyes find no rest since our eyes first met in kind,
Though you dwell within my heart, you never come to find.
How can I know friend from foe, when our souls don't greet?
How can I know friend from foe, when our souls don't greet?
Forever deep within...
