are kya karoon kya karoon samajh na aye
dard jigar ka badhata jaye, kya kiya jaye haye
koyi nahi mera yahan
kaise hai log kaisa jahan kaisa jahan
are kya karoon kya karoon samajh na aye
dard jigar ka badhata jaye
kya kiya jaye haye koyi nahi mera yahan
kaise hai log kaisa jahan, kaisa jahan

woh kaun hai jisane mujhe dard-e-jigar aisa diya
dushman hai woh ya dost hai
sapane diye dil le liya
are kya karoon kya karoon samajh na aye
pyar ki pyas mein tan jala jaye
kya kiya jaye haye
koyi nahi mera yahan
kaise hai log kaisa jahan kaisa jahan

ho kaun tum kyun ho khade roke mera yun rasta
mehbub tum lagate nahi tumase mera kya wasta
are kya karoon kya karoon samajh na aye
dard jigar ka badhata jaye, kya kiya jaye haye
koyi nahi mera yahan, kaise hai log kaisa jahan
kaisa jahan are kya karoon kya karoon
samajh na aye dard jigar ka badhata jaye
kya kiya jaye haye
koyi nahi mera yahan
kaise hai log kaisa jahan, kaisa jahan

Lost, adrift, a shadowed plea, what to do?
The heart's ache swells, a tide anew.
Oh, what to do, what to do?
None are mine, none true.
How are these souls? This world, untrue.
Lost, adrift, the heart's burden grows,
What to do, the torment flows?
None are mine, this emptiness I face,
How are these souls? This world, this space.

Who is the one who birthed this pain within?
Foe or friend, where does the truth begin?
Dreams they gave, then stole my heart away,
Lost, adrift, I cannot find my way.
My body burns for love's embrace,
What to do, I cannot trace.
None are mine, in this lonely place,
How are these souls? This world, this space.

Who are you, blocking my path's faint light?
Lover you seem not, what claim have you on my night?
Lost, adrift, the heart's ache starts anew,
What to do, what to do?
None are mine, in shades of grey,
How are these souls? This world's display.
This world's display, oh, what to do?
Lost, adrift, the ache's strength grew.
What to do, with no one near?
None are mine, in this world's fear.
How are these souls? This world, this space.
