jaan badi mushkil me
aankh meri galti se lad gayi
jaan badi mushkil me pad gayi

mai na banta tera sajanva
vapas leta mai mangva
mai na banta tera sajanva
vapas leta mai mangva
o meri, o meri
o meri tauba baat magar
baat magar ab aage badh gayi
jaan badi mushkil me
aankh meri galti se ladh gayi
jaan badi mushkil me pad gayi

ban gayi meri aasha nirasha
tu na samjhi mere man ki bhasha
ban gayi meri aasha nirasha
tu na samjhi mere man ki bhasha
o meri, o meri, o meri tauba
haye meri haye meri duniya ujad gayi
jaan badi mushkil me pad gayi
aankh meri galti se lad gayi
jaan badi mushkil me

The soul, ensnared in depths unknown,
My gaze, by error, met your own.
The soul, now trapped, its struggle shown.

If I'd not been your lover's plight,
Recalled the vows I spoke that night.
If I'd not been your lover's plight,
Recalled the vows I spoke that night.
Oh, mine, oh mine,
Oh, mine, a vow now undone,
A truth that, relentless, has begun.
The soul, ensnared in depths unknown,
My gaze, by error, met your own.
The soul, now trapped, its struggle shown.

My hopes have turned to bitter dust,
You failed to read the heart's deep trust.
My hopes have turned to bitter dust,
You failed to read the heart's deep trust.
Oh, mine, oh mine, oh mine, a plea,
Alas, my world, now fallen free.
The soul, ensnared in depths unknown,
My gaze, by error, met your own.
The soul, now trapped, its struggle shown.
