tere hatho me, apni zindagi ka saaz dete hai
chale aao bhari mehfil se, hum aawaz dete hai

raat bhar humko na uthne diya, maykhane se
kabhi aankho se pilaai, kabhi paymane se
kabhi aankho se pilaai, kabhi paymane se

haye kya rang hai, kya mastiya ranayi hai
aaj jannat, meri aankho me utar aayi hai
jab kiya hai kabhi, jannat ka tasavvur humne
jab kiya hai kabhi, jannat ka tasavvur humne
teri tasvir ubhar aayi hai paymane se
teri tasvir ubhar aayi hai paymane se
kabhi aankho se pilaai, kabhi paymane se

na bhari bazm se darte ho, na ghabrate ho
kaise nadan ho, juda man se lipat jate ho
bekhudi me, kisi daman se lipatne ka maja
bekhudi me, kisi daman se lipatne ka maja
jake puchho, kisi bahke hue diwane se
jake puchho, kisi bahke hue diwane se
kabhi aankho se pilaai, kabhi paymane se

jaam may hi to, jaruri nahi jeene ke liye
kisne majbur kiya hai tumhe, peene ke liye
tauba karne hi chale the, ke rukhe roshan par
tauba karne hi chale the, ke rukhe roshan par
chha gayi kaali ghata, julf bikhar jane se
chha gayi kaali ghata, julf bikhar jane se
kabhi aankho se pilaai, kabhi paymane se

tumne jab bhi, rukhe maasum pe dali najre
humne sharma ke, sare bazm jhuka li najre
teri jhukti hui najro ka, ishara to kar
teri jhukti hui najro ka, ishara pakar
humne takra diya paymane ko, paymane se
humne takra diya paymane ko, paymane se
kabhi aankho se pilaai, kabhi paymane se

In your hands, the music of my life I place,
From this crowded hall, a whispered grace.

All night, the tavern held us in its sway,
With eyes that poured, and goblets to obey.
With eyes that poured, and goblets to obey.

Oh, what hues, what rapturous delight,
Paradise descends, within my sight.
When heaven's form I dared to contemplate,
When heaven's form I dared to contemplate,
Your image bloomed, from every liquid state.
Your image bloomed, from every liquid state.
With eyes that poured, and goblets to obey.

Fear not the crowd, nor let your spirit shrink,
How naive, to the beloved you link.
In blissful haze, to clinging clothes a thrill,
In blissful haze, to clinging clothes a thrill,
Ask the mad, lost in their own sweet will.
Ask the mad, lost in their own sweet will.
With eyes that poured, and goblets to obey.

The cup of wine, not all that life demands,
Who forced your hand, to sip from these sands?
We vowed to cease, but to your radiant face,
We vowed to cease, but to your radiant face,
Dark clouds arose, as tresses found their place.
Dark clouds arose, as tresses found their place.
With eyes that poured, and goblets to obey.

Each time your gaze, on innocent cheeks did fall,
Shame made us bow, before the eyes of all.
Your downcast glance, its silent message sends,
Your downcast glance, its silent message sends,
And goblet met, with goblet's embrace transcends.
And goblet met, with goblet's embrace transcends.
With eyes that poured, and goblets to obey.
