dil samajhta hai
ya khuda jane
meri muskil ko
koi kya jaane
dil samajhta hai
ya khuda

kaisi ulfat
mujhe to dehsat hai
kash mera wo mudda jane
dil samajhta hai
ya khuda jane

mere hosho khirad pe
kya gujri
nigaahe aaj chupaye
kya jane
dil samajhta hai
ya khuda

wo tasbbur me aake
kehte hai
tum ho kaise
meri bala jane
tum ho kaise
meri bala jane
dil samajhta hai
ya khuda jane

The heart knows,
Or God alone,
My plight,
Who truly knows?
The heart knows,
Or God.

What love's become,
Terror has dawned,
Would that my cause be known!
The heart knows,
Or God.

Upon my reason,
What has passed,
Eyes now veiled,
What can they see?
The heart knows,
Or God.

In dreams they come,
And whisper near,
"How are you?"
My beloved knows,
"How are you?"
My beloved knows,
The heart knows,
Or God.
