main ek farishta tha
jannat ka rehne wala
kyu tune ki ijaat meri
kyun jannat se nikala
kyu tune ki ijaat meri
kyun jannat se nikala
allah tala bol allah tala
allah tala bol allah tala

jo phal khana thaa mana usi
ke khane ko uksaya
hauaa se sohbat karne ka
kisne armaan jagaya
majboor milan ko
unhein kisne kar dala
allah tala bol allah tala

aadam ki nasl aadmi hui
aur bas gayi duniya saari
jannat ke un do phoolo ki hain
kitani badi phool waali
maala se maala bani
maala se maala
allah tala dekh allah tala

mitti ke insaan banaye
phir un mein dil dhadkaaye
dil mein khwaishe jaagi
khwaaisho ne sab zurm karaye
khud ko na sambhala gaya
khud ko na sambhala
allah tala samaj allah tala

I was an angel,
A dweller of paradise.
Why did you create me?
Why cast me from Eden?
Why did you create me?
Why cast me from Eden?
Allah Tala, speak, Allah Tala,
Allah Tala, speak, Allah Tala.

The forbidden fruit,
Why was I tempted to taste it?
Who ignited the desire,
To embrace Eve, to love?
Forced union,
Who orchestrated their fall?
Allah Tala, speak, Allah Tala.

Adam's seed, mankind arose,
And the whole world was settled.
Such a vast garden,
From those two flowers of paradise.
Wreaths from wreaths,
Chains from chains.
Allah Tala, speak, Allah Tala.

From dust, humans you fashioned,
Then breathed life into their chests.
Desires bloomed in their hearts,
And desires birthed all sins.
Self could not be contained,
Self could not be held.
Allah Tala, speak, Allah Tala.
