Chand se parda kijiye... Veil yourself from the moon...

Hum apne pyaar ki baat We are talking about our love Duniya se chhupa le Let’s hide it from the world Hum apni jaan de dein We could give our lives Zindagi ko gawa le We could sacrifice our lives Aap jaisa koi dekh le If someone like you were to see To sharma ke paas ho jaaye It would shy away.
