chitthiye ni dard firaq valiye
leja leja sandesha sone yaar da
o leja leja sandesha sone yaar da
tanu vastaye dil de chuka yaar
chitthiye dard firaq valiye
leja leja sandesha sone yaar da
o leja leja sandesha sone yaar da
pal vich aag de angare nahi rukde
o pal vich aag de angare nahi rukde
ishq de musaq chhupaye nahi chhupde
phir bhi ye raz phir bhi ye raz jan jati hai duniya
hotho pe lagale chahe tale koi chhupde
hotho pe lagale chahe tale koi chhupde
o tuta katra se yug da ye pyar da
chitthiye chitthiye dard firaq valiye
leja leja sandesha sone yaar da
o leja leja sandesha sone yaar da

aave na bichhod a koi bikhre na yaar se
aave na bichhod a koi bikhre na yaar se
sunte hai aansuo ka rishta hai pyar se
aansuo se dard ke ansuo se dard ke shole nahi bujhati
hayo rabba maut thandi lambe intzar se
hayo rabba maut thandi lambe intzar se
o ho dukh dena na kisi ko intzar da
chitthiye dard firaq valiye
leja leja sandesha sone yaar da
o leja leja sandesha sone yaar da
chitthiye chitthiye chitthiye chitthiye

O, letter of separation, you, the pain-bearer,
Carry my message to my golden beloved.
Carry my message to my golden beloved.
For you, I give the core of my heart.
O, letter of separation, you, the pain-bearer,
Carry my message to my golden beloved.
Carry my message to my golden beloved.

In a moment, embers of fire cannot be contained,
In a moment, embers of fire cannot be contained.
The secrets of love cannot be hidden,
Even though you try, even though you try, the world knows.
Even though you try, even though you try, the world knows.
Though you silence them, these secrets,
A shattered drop, the love of ages.
O, letter of separation, you, the pain-bearer,
Carry my message to my golden beloved.
Carry my message to my golden beloved.

May separation never come, may love never be broken,
May separation never come, may love never be broken.
They say tears are the kin of love.
From tears, from tears the flames of pain are not quenched,
O God, death is cold, compared to long waiting.
O God, death is cold, compared to long waiting.
Do not give pain to anyone through waiting.
O, letter of separation, you, the pain-bearer,
Carry my message to my golden beloved.
Carry my message to my golden beloved.
O, letter, letter, letter, letter...
