dil hi`dil mein sulag ke bujhe hum
aur sahe gum dur hi dur
dil hi`dil mein sulag ke bujhe hum
aur sahe gum dur hi dur
tum se kon si aans bandhi hai
tumse rahe hum dur hi dur
dil hi`dil mein sulag ke bujhe hum

tumne humko jabhhi dekha
sukara balav the ya khamosh
tumne humko jabhhi dekha
sukara balav the ya khamosh
yun to akshar roye lekin
chhup chhup kam kam dur hi dur
dil hi`dil mein sulag ke bujhe hum
aur sahe gum dur hi dur
dil hi`dil mein sulag ke bujhe hum

ek wo aane ke unki zara si
baat gawara kar na sake
ek wo aane ke unki zara si
baat gawara kar na sake
ek ye haal ke yaad mein unki
roye the hum dur hi dur
dil hi`dil mein sulag ke bujhe hum

darke talab pe khus the ki aakhir
kaam lia dadaayi se
darke talab pe khus the ki aakhir
kaam lia dadaayi se
kisko khabar hai jalte rahe hum
jalte rahe hum dur hi dur
dil hi`dil mein sulag ke bujhe hum
aur sahe gum dur hi dur
tum koun si aas bandhi thi
tum se rahe hum door hi door
dil hi dil mein sulag ke bujhe hum

Within my heart, I smoldered, then turned to ash,
Bearing grief, always far.
Within my heart, I smoldered, then turned to ash,
Bearing grief, always far.
What ties remain to bind us, tell,
That I must stay so far away?
Within my heart, I smoldered, then turned to ash.

Whenever you looked upon me,
A storm raged, or silence reigned.
Whenever you looked upon me,
A storm raged, or silence reigned.
Though words may weep, unseen, unheard,
I hid my tears, always far.
Within my heart, I smoldered, then turned to ash,
Bearing grief, always far.
Within my heart, I smoldered, then turned to ash.

That glimpse of you, your fleeting presence,
Was more than I could bear to keep.
That glimpse of you, your fleeting presence,
Was more than I could bear to keep.
And now, in memory of you,
I wept, always far.
Within my heart, I smoldered, then turned to ash.

At the door of longing, I rejoiced,
That at last, I might be noticed.
At the door of longing, I rejoiced,
That at last, I might be noticed.
Who knows how I burned within myself,
Burning, burning, always far?
Within my heart, I smoldered, then turned to ash,
Bearing grief, always far.
What ties remain to bind us, tell,
That I must stay so far away?
Within my heart, I smoldered, then turned to ash.
