Roman Script

Rajnigandha Phool Tumhare Mehke Yoohi Jeevan Mein
Jaise Mehke Preet Piya Ki Mere Anuragi Main Mein

Hindi

रजनीगंधा फूल तुम्हारे महके यूँ ही जीवन में
जैसे महके प्रीत पिया की मेरे अनुरागी मन में

Translation

May rajnigandha the flower ('night fragrance') blossom in your life
Just like love for my beloved blossoms in my tender heart.

Roman Script

Har Pal Meri In Aankho Mein Bas Rehte Hain Sapne Unke
Man Kehta Hai Main Rango Ki Ik Pyar Bhari Badli Bankar
Barsoo Unke Jeevan Mein

Hindi

हर पल मेरी इन आँखों में बस रहते हैं सपने उनके
मन कहता है मैं रंगों की एक प्यार भरी बदली बनकर
बरसूँ उनके जीवन में

Translation

Every moment, my eyes dream of him.
My heart says that I should become a cloud full of colors
and shower upon his life (to make it colorful)

Roman Script

Adhikaar Ye Jabse Saajan Ka Har Dhadkan Par Maana Maine
Main Jabse Unke Saath Bandhi, Ye Bhed Tabhi Jaana Maine
Kitna Sukh Hai Bandhan Mein

Hindi

अधिकार ये जबसे साजन का हर धड़कन पर माना मैंने
मैं जबसे उनके साथ बंधी ये भेद तभी जाना मैंने
कितना सुख है बंधन में

Translation

When I submitted (by conceding the rights of) every heartbeat of mine to my beloved,
(and) when I experienced a union with him, only then did I figure out this mystery:
how much bliss lies in togetherness!
