dur duniya se chala hu meri maiyat ko sambhalo
dur duniya se chala hu meri maiyat ko sambhalo
uth gaya hu mai jahan se uth gaya hu mai jahan se
apne kande pe utha lo
dur duniya se chala hu meri maiyat ko sambhalo
dur duniya se chala hu lautne wala nahi hu
dur duniya se chala hu lautne wala nahi hu

mere pyaro ye samajhna dur badal me kahi hu
muh chuppana hai hi achcha
ye kafan chehre pe dala uth gaya hu mai jahan se
apne kande pe utha lo dur duniya se chala hu
lautne wala nahi hu
mund li maine jo aankhe bujh gaye hai chand taare
mund li maine jo aankhe bujh gaye hai chand taare

ja ke ab toofan se kah do aa gaya hu mai kinare
karke matam mere yaaro mujhko uljhan me na dalo
uth gaya hu mai jahan se mujhe apne kande pe utha lo
dur duniya se chala hu lautne wala nahi hu
dur duniya se chala hu meri maiyat ko sambhalo
dur duniya se chala hu

From a world afar, I depart, tend my passing,
From a world afar, I depart, tend my passing,
I have risen from this world, I have risen from this world,
Lift me upon your shoulders.
From a world afar, I depart, tend my passing,
From a world afar, I depart, I shall not return,
From a world afar, I depart, I shall not return.

My beloved, know this, I am somewhere in distant clouds,
It is best to hide my face,
This shroud upon my face, I have risen from this world,
Lift me upon your shoulders, from a world afar I depart,
I shall not return.
I have closed my eyes, the moon and stars have dimmed,
I have closed my eyes, the moon and stars have dimmed.

Go, tell the storm, I have reached the shore,
Mourning, my friends, do not entangle me with sorrow,
I have risen from this world, lift me upon your shoulders,
From a world afar, I depart, I shall not return,
From a world afar, I depart, tend my passing,
From a world afar, I depart.
