Do not wander, Beloved, to distant lands, leaving love behind,
Do not wander, Beloved, leaving love behind.
Having kindled love, then abandoned me, your own,
Having kindled love, do not wander, do not wander, Beloved,
Oh, having kindled love.
Oh crow, feast on all,
But pick clean my flesh,
Spare my eyes,
For I yearn to meet my Love.
I yearn to meet my Love,
I yearn to meet my Love.
You are my Ranjha, I am your Heer,
You are my Ranjha, I am your Heer,
You are the line in the palm of my hand.
How shall I live, to whom shall I speak?
How shall I find patience?
Oh, having kindled love, do not wander, do not wander.
If I had known love's sorrow,
If I had known love's sorrow,
I would have proclaimed it through the town,
Let none love, let none love,
Let none love.
What fate is this, what destiny, shackles on my feet?
What fate is this, what destiny, shackles on my feet?
How shall my youth pass, as my heart aches?
How shall my youth pass, as my heart aches?
Oh, having kindled love, do not wander,
Do not wander, Beloved, to distant lands, oh, having kindled love.
Having kindled love, having kindled love.
