Baware naina bhare rahe raat bhar
These disturbed eyes are filled through the night (with tears)
Soye jage, Jage soye
be they asleep or awake
Jaane kis baat par
know not why
Man khush bhi hai, bechan bhi
My heart feels happy and disturbed too
Uljhan kesi din rain ki
What is this dilemma that haunts me day and night?

Ab tu hi aake bol Kanha, Gaanthe sari khol
Come now Kanha, you tell me and clear my "knots" (confusion)
Tu jo kahde jal jaaon is aag par
If you ask me to, i'll burn in this fire
jaal jaaon is aag par

Man chahe pankh laga kar,
My heart wishes for wings
Sari khushiya yeh paa kar
getting all its desires
Kahin uud jaoon
to take flight
In muskano pe mera, adikar hai kya ye sochu
if i think whether i have rights to these smiles
Main dar janoon
I would be afraid (to know)
Haste kadmose jo badh jaoon
If i were to take joyful steps ahead
Kahi raahon main na kho jaoon
I fear i may get lost

---------Sad version-----------
Kagaz ke nikle saare, pal chaaht ke
These moments of desire are as thin and light like paper
Kagaz ke nilke saare
Ud gaye sab jaane kahan re
I have no clue where they took flight
Pal chaaht ke
These moments of desire
Aise badla yeh manzar
things changed in such a manner
Kuch toot gaya mere ander
Something broke within me
Bin aahat ke
without making any noise
Eehaas jagaye, tu ne jis dil mein
This strange feeling that you have made me feel in my heart
Phir toda wahi dil, kaise tu ne
How come u have broken that very heart?

Jo tut gaye hai sapnay
These broken dreams
jane kyun ban ker apnay laut atte hai..
WHy have they come back to haunt me
nahi manjil jin raston per..
these paths dont' lead to my destination
kyun unpe kadam ruk ruk ker badh jatey hai...
then why are my feet proceeding hesitantly on these paths?
WOH TERA NAHI SUNN MAN PAGLEY...
He is not yours, you foolish heart
KYUN MANE NA TU KYUN NA SAMBHLEY
Why don't you accept it and control yourself?
